{"product_id":"9781091895195","title":"Hugs Mean More To Me Than Life: My Special Needs As An Autistic Person","description":"Hugs mean everything to me. I have a sensory issue in my right ear that can only be relieved by pressing it on the cheek of the person I like, mostly females. People think intelligence equals no needs and no disability and I shouldn't have these needs. I started out in Special Ed. They actually showered each other with hugs daily in that world. I was normalized into your world but my needs never went away. Hugs are considered sexual in the medical community and sometimes the general public. People used to think I was retarded. Now, I'm being punished for having these needs because I seem normal to them. It actually traumatizes me not to be able to hug the people I like especially nurses. I wish I'd never left Special Ed so my needs would be met. I have affection and dependency needs due to autism and always have since birth. I hope reading this book will help you see this and help you understand the importance of meeting these needs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eBrian Gene Evans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eIndependently Published\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eMar 27, 2019\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e142 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003ePaperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e1091895198\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9781091895195\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Independently published","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48554306666801,"sku":"9781091895195","price":13.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/files\/9781091895195__38231_3770d4ff-ec7f-4df0-b6eb-7c20519e33ae.jpg?v=1716063126","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9781091895195","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
