Description

In this episode, we are joined by an author living with a type of autism known as Asperger’s Syndrome, Matthew Kenslow. His journey through life, learning about everyone and everything around him through both compliments and teases, has been an adventure. His goal is to demonstrate to others how autistic people perceive the world in a different way from the rest of the world. In this episode, Host Annette Hines and Matthew talked about how Matthew handled socialization from grade school until college. For him, being aware of his limitations and differences from neurotypical students was key to his self-acceptance, for example during grade school, he accepted that he was not really as good a reader as others. But eventually, he became an author who published the book Juggling the Issues: Living With Asperger's Syndrome in which he shares many of the issues that those with autism and Asperger's face each day.  Matthew Kenslow’s Book: Juggling the Issues: Living With Asperger's Syndrome Let us know what you think of this episode!
