    Very interesting -- this lady has designed clothing to help people with ASD to get dressed and stay dressed. No seams, buttons, zippers, tags, etc., and every piece of clothing is totally reversible front/back and inside/out. No worrying about which direction things go, and nothing to irritate once it's on.

    The article mentions that 75% of OT time is spent teaching people how to get dressed. So that time could be spent on other things now.

    Oh, and it comes with a tiny GPS device, too.

    Beautiful. I hope it's exactly what children and their parents dream about! What an incredible person to create this-brought a tear to my eye, thanks for sharing.
