I am not a Brat I have Autismby: Becca Dupree

Tyler was a lot like the other kids he liked to play and have friends.

But their was also something different about him

He had trouble with Math writing reading and social skills

He also was sensitive to loud noises clothes and lights

Tyler is not acting weird he has a disability called autism

Tyler is not being a brat he can’t help what he does

He also has something called a visual schedule because he wants to know what he is going to be doing and what he is going to be doing next.

Tyler goes into a special classroom to have extra help on subjects that are hard for him

Tyler takes a long time to do work because his brain works differently.

When Tyler gets upset he screams, hits, kicks and bites but he does it because he doesn’t know how to control it

Tyler is obsessed with Snoopy he knows all the characters all the books, tv series and music.

I don’t care that Tyler has autism he is an amazing friend that’s all that matters to me.
