My blog post is about Peter Diller's social issue post and The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime by Mark Haddon. In this book, an autistic child named Christopher becomes accused of a dog slaughter. As he slowly finds the culprit, he slowly understands life and (partially) his love for his parents.
What I find captivating in Peter's blog post is that he describes his thoughts in an engaging way - something along the lines of, "oh yeah, I never thought of that..." or "yeah, I think this too". His questions mostly describe this situation. Otherwise, his vocabulary and flow of his paragraphs are very sophisticated. I also tried using research as one of my factors to my blog posts.
I have read this book, and became inspired by this blog post. His research also wanted me to learn more about autism. His post made me think about connected questions relating to autism - whether we should accept autistic people as 'one' of 'us', and I wouldn't know what to do either. My first thoughts would be to gather all autistic children and put them into another community, or provide a better education in a public autism school; but the probability that it'll work remains to the low 10%s.
Or maybe society as a whole doesn't have to do a thing. Maybe scientists and researchers will find a way to cure autism - perhaps, through the use of genetic engineering, or brain inputs. Technology, especially in the medical major, has seriously been advancing since the 1900s. Maybe we can find a way this year. Or next year. Possibly a few decades, or even more. But eventually, we will find a cure.
Of all of the blogs I've read so far, I find this one the most interesting. I say this because of his intriguing, compelling language and provoking thoughts that can really improve our own blogs. His posts may even change the world for a better.
