God Chooses a Mom for a Disabled Child by Erma Bombeck

Institute for the Study of the Neurologically Typical
This site is an exercise in "putting the shoe on the other foot": it is a humorous look at the "normal" population using the language and categorical assumptions that researchers and clinicians all too often use when dealing with atypical populations such as the autism spectrum.

Yes, one minute everything was fine. Then, whether it happened in an instant, as it often does, or over the course of a few weeks or months, our entire lives changed. Something wasn't quite right.
