Travel codes are a great way to get discount travel no matter which way you decide to move from state to state, or country to country. Travel codes are specialized codes that are set aside for specific groups of people so that they can get discount travel tickets for trains, planes, car rentals, and even ferries.

My daughter has Asperger’s syndrome and also ADHD and I have had to FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT for diagnosis, for medical help and for understanding and for suitable education, Let’s hope things can change.

I have aspergers and a lot of the things she mentions in this video I had no idea were connected to my syndrome. When I was a boy I would start bawling the second my mother brought me into a supermarket, and not stop until we left. A few years ago I went to a rock concert that had blinking strobe lights, and I had to spend half the concert holding my hands over my eyes because the lights drove me crazy. I’ve never had any problems with audio and music, though; I’m always listening to rock music.

I have nothing but tons of respect for Ms. Grandin. She has done so much for the livestock industry. Her connection with animals is amazing.

I’m diagnosed with Aspergers too.
I read a lot about Temple Grandin.
Great to see and hear her speaking.
Thanks a lot for uploading.

My son and I both are have Asperger’s Syndrome.
The latest research on Austism and Asperger’s is that they are different conditions.
I have no problems with loud noises: I find engine noises rather exciting actually.
My son and I have a need to clarify and classify any information we come across.
Muddle and formless information is stressful to us.
I am currently reading Temple Grandin’s books.
Great to have some-one with an “inside view” writing about the condition rather researcher!
April 24th, 2009 at 4:17 pm
Dr Grandin, you give me hope that my child can live a relatively normal life. Thank you

The lopsided skills part makes a lot of sense. I have in the last year been diagnosed with Aspergers, and when I was in middle school they found out my reading level was first year college, but my math was below average.

Temple Grandin opens a new and important window on autism – how autistic people perceive, and then how they earn. This is so basic as to be almost ludicrous. Some high functioning autistics can all be “mainstreamed”, but others cannot. The approach must never be “blanket remedies’ although many autistic kids do possess common learning challenges. But each must be treated individually, with stimulation based on a particular child’s strengths and learning deficits. Bless you, Dr. Grandin!

A truly inspirational lady. Thank goodness for people like Prof. Grandin. I think my son may be Aspergers and this information has be extremely valuable. Brilliant!!
May 1st, 2009 at 10:49 am
Thanks. You’re awesome.
May 4th, 2009 at 4:04 pm
I need to show ma best friend this so she can actually understand it better. This is great thnx
May 5th, 2009 at 11:52 pm
She’s so awesome!
May 6th, 2009 at 4:40 am
I found out the real answer, and the answer is yes she is a savant.
May 8th, 2009 at 11:11 am
Wow, thanks for posting this Ampcenter.
Thank you, Dr. Temple Grandin for this amazing info. You are a class act.
Blessings!

I don’t think that matters. However, in my opinion, I don’t think she is savant. I think she is passionate about her work and her brain is programmed differently than neurotypicals. Any other opinions?
May 12th, 2009 at 10:35 am
I am confused, is she a savant? Some places say that she is, others say that she is not. If anyone can help let me know.
May 14th, 2009 at 4:55 pm
Thank you. This helped more than any other information that I have found so far.
May 16th, 2009 at 4:11 am
Thank you for an excellent presentation.
