Friday's Rave

My little man hitting the big boy slide in Marlay, when 6 months ago he was scared of the small one at home. We are hearing some new words out of him every week. Socially everyday he seems better. He still struggles with simple things most 3 year olds would have no problem with, but thanks to his ASD preschool and doing SLT sessions he is starting to get somewhere. He fights and wins battles everyday, but he never quits. He's my hero, my champ.

That's awesome RP, their (children generally) resilience never ceases to amaze.

Great to hear: many children start out slow and go on to thrive. All the best to you and him. Children kill us but they are our strength also.

Thanks Pegster, getting his diagnosis was tough; but it would be an injustice and disservice to him for me to feel sorry for myself. He's an amazing person, gets it from his mom

No one wants one but quite often having a diagnosis is a good thing in that it opens doors to accessing appropriate services etc. No idea what it is but hopefully it's a start to good things. Good luck.

Greater love hath no man than for his own child.
Keep the hugs and cuddles going and enjoy them.

The parents of Milly Tuomey for their appearance discussing the death by suicide of their 11 year old daughter on the late late.

A heart wrenching interview.

Not that it was mentioned during the interview but, shame on the entire irish media for how they described, in their headlines, the reason for that girl committing sucide.

As the dad of a four year and one year old nothing scares me more!

Bitcoins got Fiddy. Wonder where Taylor Swift will come down on it.

There is now a car in orbit around the sun, it's orbit bisecting Earth and Mars.

Is Donald in the car?

There is now a car in orbit around the sun, it's orbit bisecting Earth and Mars.

I'd say you are factually incorrect.

I'd say Elon Musk has more sense than money - and he's a very rich man.

1) The new Falcon Heavy rocket would have had a dummy payload regardless - be it a hunk of metal, or the car it was
2) He can claim to have the fastest, most well travelled car known to man.
3) Given that Tesla spend next to nothing on advertising, this is a publicity coup for them - every news agency on Earth is showing a Tesla in space. What price would equivalent advertising be?
