What do you think? Do you like the Atypical TV series? Should this TV show be cancelled or renewed for another season on Netflix?
I would love to see this show continued. My grandson has autism he is eight and I know he will go threw some if not all the situation and issues. It helps parents see things that will arise in the spectrum world.
I think the show is great. I have two grandchildren with Autism and they are great kids. I think the world should see that kids with Autism are first of all kids who have to face the same issues other kids face, only with a lot more obstacles. The show is inspiring.
