I’m sitting here crying. They showed a meltdown, even though it was a small one. Julia is so precious.
I’m seeing myself when I was 4. My mannerisms, my speech patterns. That could be me in Julia’s place and the scenes wouldn’t be changed at all.
I’m crying. It’s not sad crying.I literally had a meltdown today exactly the same way she does. I was rocking and had my ears covered and was making the same noise she was.
I think I’ll join you in the not sad crying.Same thing. I had a meltdown yesterday, because there was loud music at my library, and i reacted exactly the same.
The thing that i also really liked is that the guy said, before talking about Julia’s autism : “Julia likes people to know that she has autism”.
It means that they’re not outing her without her consent ! How rare is that ? I regret the person-first language, but damn, the rest is so good !For real, this is almost exactly what my sensory meltdowns look like if the stimulus doesn’t last too long. Like, I’m actually seeing a girl like me on TV; a girl like my wife. I was so stunned. And cried. Bc of course I cried. Who wouldn’t after 37 years of no representation?
she happy flaps!!! i love her, she’s adorable!
