"We fully understand the story as told by Eddie's father. Our son is also five years old and has Asperger's Syndrome.

It is important that people are aware so the children and their families receive the support and understanding they deserve."

- Sally Penna, Derby.

It was good. We have six children, two of whom have autism, and at times it is really hard work,and mostly it is a mad house, but we love it that way.
