Pointing out that his son was not severely affected by autism and that his abilities were supported correctly, Kamacı noted that other children with autism may have similar or higher potential.

Kamacı stated that they tried to provide appropriate materials and study environment in order to contribute to his son’s development and that his son improved himself over time.
Stating that the focusing skills of individuals with autism may differ, Kamacı said, “We are exposed to a lot of stimuli, but since individuals with autism can ignore some stimuli, they can focus more on a particular subject and see the details more clearly. he said. Kamacı said that the inner world of individuals with autism works differently, so they can produce very successful results in some areas. – Children with autism feel intense emotions.
Stating that he always receives support from his environment and family, Kamacı said: There are many syndromes and diagnoses regarding autism. It is not possible for everyone to know these, but it is important for the education community to raise awareness of society and families. The more consciously we approach a subject, the more sensitive and empathetic we can be. This world belongs to all of us. Families with children with autism, please do not wear yourself out with great worries.
Over time, these concerns reflect on family members and the child. Especially children with autism feel emotions intensely. They observe and internalize thoughts and attitudes. Our emotions spread to them quickly. Therefore, let them raise their children in peace, free from worry. 15In Kastamonu, a stray cat took up residence at the bus stop in front of the Mehmet Akif Ersoy District State Hydraulic Works Regional Directorate.
