A few days
ago we saw a video about people with Asperger Syndrome. The people talked about
their own experiences and how they dealt with this syndrome.
First, I would like to explain the idea that I had about
Asperger Syndrome. I thought Asperger people was unable to socialise, to
maintain a conversation with other people. I also thought that they obsessed
with an specific subject and they create their world around that subject and
that is the reason why they don’t socialise. Then, I thought that they never
expressed feelings and that they felt uncomfortable if someone expressed
feelings to them. I thought that they were only conscious of their own life so
they don’t care about others problems (they don’t share, they are not empathic,
kind, etc. Asperger people don’t recognise irony or doble sense expressions.
On the other
hand, I knew that tall of these things or characteristics could change if the
Asperger person lives in a good climate or at least if they live in an
environment where people know its problem and can help them. I saw this in a
films which I like a lot called ‘My name is Kahn’. In the film we can se the
evolution of Khan, who has Asperger syndrome since he was born. Here I attach a
Little video for you to see it. Hope you like it!
Now,
I’m going to summarize the main ideas I get from the video and finally I will
make a final conclussion linking my previous ideas with the ideas I have after
sawing the video.
As I have
said before, like in the film, the people of the video show that they are
people but with an specific type of difficulty. They behave in that way because
they don’t fell connceted to the real world, they don’t understand it so they
decide to isolate and build they own world where they are comfortable.
In
conclussion, I some day I have an Asperger student in my class I think that,
first of all I will try to make this student feel comfrotable. For this, I
think that the school should propose a talk about Asperger syndrome and other
types of disabilities in general so students will be concerned about the general
way that most Aspergers act, think and express. Children awareness is important
as they are the ones who are going to expend most of their time with Asperger
students.
Then, I will
try to treat the Asperger student the same as their peers but always taking
into account the difficulties he or she could find due to its syndrome. And the
final aim will be to make this student understand the world so he or she could
enjoy and will avoid the idea of “leaving our world” and go to the world they
have bilt for being comfortable.
