As parents, many of us make the promise to do our best when it comes to our children. In 2003, we made this promise after our child was diagnosed with Autism. Our Autism 2 Awesome early intervention and researched based training was created to educate, empower, inspire, and support families challenged by Autism.

- Autism is epidemic
- Autism affects 1 in 110 children
- Autism affects 1 in 70 boys
- Autism is a medical disease, not a psychological disorder
- Autism affects other body organ systems besides the brain
- Autism cost the Nation over $90 Billion per year, a figure expected to double in the next decade
- Today autism is the most common childhood developmental disability.
- Psychologists at the National Institutes of Mental Heath have found that boys who have contact with their fathers display a greater trust level even by the time they are fives old.
- The Harvard Educational Review suggests that fathers seem to help children develop the thinking skills that lead to success in math.
- In an extensive Guidubaldi study of elementary-school children, children without fathers are likely to have more nightmares, have greater anxiety, be less popular with peers, and be more hostile to adults. They were more likely to be dependent, inattentive, and either aggressive, withdrawn, or both. They were poorer at social skills in general and communication in particular.
- The Journal of Research in Crime and Delinquency reports that the more absent the father, the higher the rates of violent crimes.
