加拿大多伦多14自闭症岁女孩透过电脑与人沟通
有一位多伦多的自闭症女孩(Carly Fleischmann),完全没有语言而且有严重的行为问题。11岁那年她突然在电脑上输入两个字让她的家人和治疗师发现另外的一个卡莉。她第一个字打的是“HURT"(痛苦),第二个字是”HELP"(帮忙)。她随后的行为干预开始教她使用电脑。她开始用打字表达她的内心。例如她解释为何她不能安静的坐着,为什么她要有这样那样的行为问题?为什么不能注视他人的眼睛?她的故事吸引了很多人的注意。她发现自己的话能够鼓励其他的人,现在开始写书还有微博。
蛮有意思的一段新闻短片,我想很多家长都应该看看。自闭症孩子的内心其实跟正常孩子一样,只是他们无法表达。下面是摘录了几句她的原话(中文随便翻译给有需要的朋友)。
卡莉:“我唯一能说的是不要放弃,你心里的话终究跟我的一样,能够找到一种方式表达出来。"(I think the only thing i can say is don't give up, your inner voice will find its way out, Mine did.)
“you don't know what it feels like to be me, when you can't sit still because your legs feel like they're on fire, or it feels like ahundreds ants are crawling up your arm."(你们不知道我的那种感觉,我不能直直地坐着是因为双脚好像被火烤着,或者像几百只蚂蚁往你手臂上爬。”
“People look at me and assume i am dumb, because I can't talk"(人们看着我会认为我是一个傻瓜,因为我不能说话。)
”It's hard to be autistic because no one understand me. What do I want? I want to be like every other kid. But I can't, because I am Carly"(有自闭症是一件痛苦的事,因为没有人会明白我。我想要什么?我只想跟其他正常的孩子一样。但是不可能,因为我是卡莉。)
“I am autistic,but that is not who i am. Take time to know me,before your judge me." (我是有自闭症,但自闭症不是我(指性格),在你对我作出(错误的)判断之前,花点时间了解我。)
“I think people get a lot of information from so-called experts,but if a horse is sick,you don't ask a fish what's wrong with the horse. you go right to the horse's mouth."(我知道人喜欢从所谓的专家那里获得很多信息。如果一匹马病了,你不会去问一条鱼那匹马有什么病,你应该直接问那匹马。)

My name is Carly Fleischmann and as long as I can remember I’ve been diagnosed with autism.I am not able to talk out of my mouth, however I have found another way to communicate by spelling on my computer. (and yes that is me typing on the computer by myself)I used to think I was the only kid with autism who communicates by spelling but last year I met a group of kids that communicate the same way. In fact some are even faster at typing then I am.Last year a story about my life was shown on ABC news, CNN and CTV here in Canada.After my story was played I kept on getting lots of emails from moms, dads, kids and people from different countries asking me all sorts of questions about autism. I think people get a lot of their information from so-called experts but I think what happens is that experts can’t give an explanation to certain questions. How can you explain something you have not lived or if you don’t know what it’s like to have it? If a horse is sick, you don’t ask a fish what’s wrong with the horse. You go right to the horse’s mouth.
