Behavior Speaks Volumes,
Look and LISTEN 

Behavior is communication.  I've said it a thousand times and truly believe this.  Acting-out can come in many forms from aggression to attention seeking to annoyance.  Sometimes I think Jake is just being a turkey, in the wake of recent activities, I will always look beyond what I actually see.  Autism Parents Read This!
