excelent, myself a a grandmother of a autistic child. my primary concern is the wellbeing of this person and his growth ,psicological and physical. To me autism is an new ilness of our times. and maybe related to enviromental and some nutricional characteristic of our times. We most act as a whole society and help this persons to cope and survive in a complete strange and even hostil enviroment. ana

First Grade, Revisited
I was very unhappy with your representation of me in "The New First Grade: Too Much Too Soon" (Sept. 11). I was happy to speak to your reporter on this important topic and I believe the article highlighted an important issue, but the things that were printed did not reflect the entirety of my sentiments. I was critical of the mandated curriculum at my daughter's Oakland, Calif., kindergarten. I felt it was at odds with the developmental needs of many children. I thought, however, that her teacher was wonderful, indeed heroic, under the circumstances. My daughter loved her teacher, too. Any suggestion to the contrary is simply false.
