World Of Jenks | Ep. 2 | Can't Make Me Be: While living with Chad, a 20-year-old with autism, Jenks experiences not only the challenges of this condition, but discovers a smart, hilarious, and heroic young man.
This is a bit belated, since I've been really busy with grad school. I had meant to post it on April 2, 2013, which happened to be World Autism Awareness Day. But hey, the month of April happens to be Autism Awareness Month, so it's all good!
Have you ever watched World of Jenks? If not, no worries- you can view all of the episodes online at the link provided in the previous sentence. This particular episode introduced viewers to Chad, a 20-year-old young man with autism. In experiencing Chad's daily life, Jenks develops a greater appreciation for his struggles and the positive attitude with which he overcomes them.
It's definitely worth checking out. If you're interested in Chad, he happens to be a recurring member of season two.
Let's use April to promote a positive image for individuals with autism and to have open, intellectual discussions regarding autism.
