Was visiting friends in Tennessee this weekend and because I knew there was going to be a small crowd there, I wore one of my "please don't touch me. I'm autistic" shirts so I wouldn't have to keep explaining that I don't shake hands. Anyway, I heard the wife of my friend couple tell her husband "we should get one of those for Josh", then she asked me where I got mine. I asked her if Josh didn't like being touched, and at first she answered "he's autistic". Then I guess she realized what I had asked and she said "Josh doesn't like being touched unless he initiates it." Josh is 4 or 5 years old and he has a twin sister who is not autistic. I don't know if the mom or dad told Josh about me or not, but several times over the weekend I noticed Josh staring at me. He didn't say anything to me, but I only saw him speak with his parents and sister - no one else that was there.
