If Sesame Street didn't
exist, I would not be able to read. My parents were substance abusers, and I am
autistic.
Thanks to Sesame Street, I
was ready for school. I have a Master's degree now, and am a multiply published
poet.
Autism Speaks is a hate
group. So my accepting childhood teachers and friends have allied themselves
with a group of people who think my life is not worth anything and my voice is
nothing.
But you gave me my voice,
Sesame Street. So there are no more sunny days, and I can't remember how to get
to Sesame Street.
