So sad what those mothers were told that it was there fault! I really feel for them!  My friend has a child with Autism, he is a wonderful boy!  I enjoy his spirit, and the love he exudes! I am in his circle of support, and this movie helped me to want to be even more supportive of my friendand their family.  They work hard to advocate for him, and also other children who have autism. The parents of Autistic children are the real heros. Forging ahead to find solutions to the enormous challenges they face every day. Thanks for the post!

BEAUTIFUL! I have a 10 yr old nephew “Hunter” that has Autism, unfortunalty my brother(Hunters Dad) lives in Montana, and I live in New York, so I never get to see him. I am trying to understand autism, learn about it, so one day I can have a relationship with Hunter.
God Bless all of you, and your right"someday you will see Paul as himself without this disease, in Heaven!”

I would like to know what the machine is called and where i can get one that the young man was using in the film.

What an amazing film--I have a 9 yo son with Autism and I thank god that even with all the challenges we still face every day we do not have the added burden of what these poor mothers & families had to face in the 50’s and 60’s.

We will all continue to fight for the rights of our children and giving them the best that we can in their lives.

Thank you for posting this important film.

God bless all of you who took the time to film this wonderful movie. As a gtandmother of autistic children i can feel the pain and love that all of us feel in this situation. I also noticed and made the comment to my daughter when michael was in her arms as to how angelic he was. Thanks again to all of you! patty

This was an incredible movie and I have nothing but admiration and respect for the mother’s and their adult children who took part in this amazing production!

As a mother caring for a severely autistic teen I thank these brave individuals who have paved the path for all parent’s now following in their footsteps.

Individuals living with autism teach us every day how to love each other as we should and be better people and I thank them all for enriching every life they touch!

Thank you very much!!!!

Thank you for putting this on your site for people to see.  I have a son who had PDD.  He is doing so well, if re-evaluated he may not even be on the spectrum anymore!!

This film broke my heart - I cried so much - I cried for the children, for the mother’s and father’s and what they had to go through. 

I am so busy fighting my fight and tearing down my walls and kicking down my doors...... I never thought about who dug the trenches!!

Thank you!

This is an amazing movie.  I never knew that any of this happened. Thank God we have wised up on the truth about autism. What heroic women these mothers were who endured this humiliation.

Thank you for this film.
