An oasis ​where women can support and learn from one another.

Glass Child Syndrome
Alicia Maples - Recognizing Glass Children (TED Talk) - Sibs
​
“About this talk: Having lost one brother to the world of autism and another to a terminal illness, Alicia Maples never knew a normal childhood. Expected to always put on a brave face, Alicia played the role of good girl on the outside. One the inside, however, she was dying. In this heart-wrenching talk, Alicia tells parents of children with special needs — and their surrounding community — to stop looking through the siblings of children with special needs.”
