		<title>MyChoicePad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[www.mychoicepad.com This makes me more than angry. This makes me fucking furious. It&#8217;s a second-rate App. It has a HORRIBLE user interface. It is difficult for children with autism to use. It causes more problems than it solves. And you have to pay extra for the full vocabulary. And what in the name of all [...]]]></description>

		<title>Moving on.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As you may have noticed, this blog has died of natural causes. Time to move on. As Little Nutter has grown older and become more capable of enjoying a wider range of activities, the whole family has been able to start something very new.

		<title>Pain</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Pain is not my friend &#8211; it&#8217;s someone who followed me home from the pub, and now it knows where I live it is going to stalk me. I have two slipped discs: one trapping a nerve in my lower back and causing pain in my leg; the other in my neck, causing pain in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Emotional Echolalia</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Little Nutter has left his toy rats at holiday club. He found out this evening when he wanted to watch his DVD of Ratatouille again. He is &#8220;So, so sad!&#8221; And now he is playing his &#8220;sad&#8221; emotional playlist on his DVD ripper software on his computer. Penguin has moved in and made friends with [...]]]></description>

		<title>The MMR Again</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not sure when the General Medical Council&#8217;s final verdict on Andrew Wakefield is due, but it can&#8217;t be long now. The interim verdict is enough to be going on with, though, having said on 28th January this year that he &#8220;failed in his duties as a responsible consultant,&#8221; and acted with &#8220;callous disregard for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bullshit</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve just been told about another autism treatment on sale in the USA: ACE Pathways Investigation Study. Make sure you aren&#8217;t eating or drinking while you read this &#8211; it is absolutely inspired. Apparently it claims that autism is caused by a &#8220;stealth virus&#8221; &#8211; presumably a smaller version of the F117 Nighthawk. This treatment [...]]]></description>

		<title>Advanced Echolalia for Autistics</title>
