My son is autistic. My wife gave birth to our beautiful son Johnny in 2007 it wasn't till Johnny started school at the age of 6 that we knew we had a problem. the school reported that Johnny was very difficult to manage and would not follow instructions. During lunch breaks, Johnny would take off and be hard to find and I became very concerned for our son's safety. After many incidents we had our son diagnosed and it was found that he was autistic the school was not up to the standards for my liking to cope with this situation. We had the option to send Johnny to a special needs school that is 50 km from our home. My fears became too much and my wife and I decided on homeschooling this has turned out to be a great blessing. My fears subsided instantly when this decision was made. My wife Linda has done all the hard work educating Johnny now for 8 years and we will never regret this decision. Johnny is about to turn 14 and I am so proud of my wife and son Johnny. Johnny is a little bit naughty now and then but what child isn't. We like to spoil Johnny I know this can have its problems but that is nothing compared to all the positives that we have in our lives. I thank God for the strength and powerful blessing that has been delivered into our lives God and Jesus really do answer prayers.
