An Impressive Family

This article from NEWS.scotsman.com about a family who opens a used book store to give their 21 year old son, Brian, a sufferer of Asperger Syndrome, a job and a sense of purpose in life is a touching example of what family is all about. The family is supporting their son by allowing him to support himself. Not only will the Broughton Street Book Shop help Brian but a portion of their profits will be donated at the end of the year to National Autistic Society.
