Babble’s Tribute to Autism Dads

Autism Wonderland has long been one of my favorites blogs. When its author, Lisa Quinones-Fontanez, writes about her experiences raising her son with autism, it is with such clarity that you feel every anxiety she has, suffer along through all of her challenges, and celebrate with her all of the triumphs.

As a big fan of her writing, I am especially honored to be included in her Father’s Day tribute to Autism Dads that she wrote for Babble. Check it out here: Let’s Hear It For The Autism Dads!

And for those of you here from Babble for the first time, thank you for visiting! Here are a few posts that may give you a little background on our family:

Recalling Our Wedding: The story and photos of day when my wife and I married, and the three of us became a family

Mainstream vs. Special School: Our heartbreak when my son couldn’t stay in our neighborhood school, and what resulted

That’s Impossible!: Sometimes, just when the challenges seem overwhelming, something happens to validate your efforts

  2. A good background of your family. It gives hope to all others. Kai has come a long way...and his path is headed in the right direction. Your strong family is to be commended. It is the strong parental leadership, as driven by your love for Kai, which is to be the most highly praised. Keep going...you are on the cusp of seeing more and more positive results from your efforts. Kai will continue to grow and learn. With more growth...comes more happiness. I am looking forward to hearing more of Kai's successes...and seeing more of his great smile.
