Dealing With Autism

Image
Some of my friends have a child with autism, and I know the struggle they have experience in dealing with the situation. Some have difficulty in accepting their child as such, some encountered pressure to push with sudden development for the situation with foggy assurance of normalization. There are different approaches on this situation because every child is different but the most difficult part is on the parents. I am absolutely certain that I am not in the authority of this field. However, Here are some links that may help those parents on dealing with the problem of Autism. DEVIANT THOUGHTS Im a special education teacher of Children with Autism here in the Philippines.

Collecting all my blogs in one section has caused me some pain and time. I have to use some third party widget to do so. I choose mybloglog.com on this instance. Though, it is a free widget, because that is one one I can afford, I would like to use the best out of it. Here is the list of all my services and blogs as far as I can remeber. I hope I have more time to update them. Encountering some problem on saving this one because it includes javascript. Here is the link. Blogs commenting Fr. Jessie's post

Feast of San Isidro

Image
May 15 is mark as one of the busiest day in the Philippine Catholic Church because it celebrates the feast of San Isidro Labrador(St. Isidore, The laborer, Farmer). Almost all of the towns if not all in the Philippines has a barrio dedicated to him, a remnant of the agricultural situation of the whole archipelago. In my Parish, there are three barrios whose patron saint is San Isidro. Two of these barrios have two chapels. To add it all, there are 5 masses to be celebration in his honor. Fr. Sisoy will celebrate Mass and administer the sacrament of baptism in Brgy. Paciano Rizal and its Sitio, Sipit. Me on the other hand will handle the same sacraments to Brgy. San Isidro and Sto. Domingo and its Sitio, Kabaritan. Blogs commenting Fr. Jessie's post Technorati icon">

Secrets of Fatima Revealed

Image
INTRODUCTION As the second millennium gives way to the third, Pope John Paul II has decided to publish the text of the third part of the “secret of Fatima”. The twentieth century was one of the most crucial in human history, with its tragic and cruel events culminating in the assassination attempt on the “sweet Christ on earth”. Now a veil is drawn back on a series of events which make history and interpret it in depth, in a spiritual perspective alien to present-day attitudes, often tainted with rationalism. Throughout history there have been supernatural apparitions and signs which go to the heart of human events and which, to the surprise of believers and non-believers alike, play their part in the unfolding of history. These manifestations can never contradict the content of faith, and must therefore have their focus in the core of Christ's proclamation: the Father's love which leads men and women to conversion and bestows the grace required to abandon oneself t...
