Autism All-Star Dr. Temple Grandin ROADBLOCK – UNEMPLOYABLE To be successful in the world of employment and have a real career, success is more likely if the job requires use of the individual’s area of strength. Temple Grandin, Autism All-Stars.

Autism All-Star Robert McLachlan

ROADBLOCK – LACKING SOCIAL SKILLS Practising characterisations for the theatre and honing my acting skills to take on different roles has, I believe, helped me characterise and take on roles in my everyday life. While I still need lots of practice and I sometimes, despite myself, get out of character, dance and theatre has helped me take on a more acceptable, mainstream role and integrate more closely with a society in which I’ve always felt like an outsider. Robert McLachlan, Autism All-Stars.

People who have autism can also be very determined and tenacious, and have great courage, despite the adversity of suffering criticism and rejection by peers. Dr Tony Attwood

Asperger Syndrome My mother would always seek ways to help me through my challenges, and yet she would also teach me to be independent, which I believe was very important, as now I am able to function independently as an adult. Damian Santomauro, Autism All-stars.
