My first meeting with her went well -- we exchanged contact information, paperwork, and further details about the project.
Going into the project, I had realized that it'd probably be beneficial and more than necessary to narrow down my topic. To truly delve into Autism is astonishing. There are so many aspects like I had mentioned in my last post: "the science behind their disorders, the therapies, and their ways of coping and overcoming them."
Dr. Cearley broke these topics down to two generic categories: scientific and social aspects.

Dr. Cearley broke these topics down to two generic categories: scientific and social aspects.
- Under science would be the manifestations, the diagnosis, the development, and then the treatment.
- Under social aspects would be the autistic person's behavior, their relationships, and their learning.
I'm still undecided on which path I should take and even deeper into that trail, because like I said before, it would be difficult to truly understand all of autism's aspects.
Dr. Cearley suggested several books to me on different these two categories of autism and she also suggested that I first research on Autism a little more before I turn left or right.
Plan: To understand a brief overview on both categories on autism before deciding on whether to take the scientific or social approach.
