I am a sister of two brothers who have autism. one on the high funtioning side of autism and the other on the low end of autism. For those people who just believe it is really hard just for the child who is living with autism, that is not true. My brother Alex is autisic and it is really hard to deal with him because I never know when he is going to explode. You have to really understand how to cope with him because he explodes a lot and he also has Aspergers. I remember when my little brother first got diganosed and my family did not know whjat to do and it still is very hard to work with, but the challenges that I deal with everyday is when he is in a crabby mood and doesnt have the plan he wants and he starts to wail at my family
