As has been mentioned before on this blog, Temple Grandin is one of my heros. So when Harriet Cabelly who blogs at www.rebuildyourlifecoach.com sent an email saying her interview with Temple Grandin is posted at her website, I was impressed.
Way to Go, Harriet Cabelly
My guess is you’re going to love the description about how the interview withe Temple Grandin came about. It certainly inspired me to follow Harriet’s advice: Don’t be afraid to ask for what you want, you just might get it.
Way to Go, Temple Grandin
But Harriet’s story is just the warm up. The interview is filled with advice from Temple, a lifetime of experiences distilled into encouragement and practical suggestions for parents of kids on the autism spectrum. But don’t take my word for it. Read the interview for yourself at Harriet’s blog.
Utilizing Harriet’s Advice
Now’s the time for me to take Harriet and Temple’s advice. Somehow, Harriet’s email address got caught in this blog’s spam filter and was deleted before I realized what had happened. Therefore Harriet, who has lots of good insights to share, can’t post them. If you have any ideas about how to rectify the situation, please leave a comment.

We are so thankful for Temple Grandin. After reading her book, we felt brave enough to try medication for our daughter. It has made life “livable” for her!!

Thanks for sharing. Great article. I checked my high-functioning autistic son’s handshake. Dad & I think it passed the test. But I agree, he has to be taught more than other kids. We even had to “teach” him how to run. Once I compared it to riding a bike really hard, something he happened to be fixated on at the time, he learned how to really run like a kid.
