#AutismParent,
Your adult child is friends with my adult child - we weren’t offering pity/kindness for a charity case. They’re friends. My child was excited to see a friend and invited him to play cards at our (all-autistic) table. You don’t have to save/thank us. Let them be.

My AuDHD kids went on a cruise for a week ..
First time my youngest went anywhere without me 🥹🥰
It feels very weird already without them home 🤣😂
(we live in #London so yep they are still at home, you do not want to know the average price of renting let alone buying anything )

The screams and actions are heartbreaking.
And I’m exhausted.
I don’t sleep just waiting for him. But I want him better and not in pain.
Any help?! #Autism #AuDHD #adhd #autisticparent #BlackAutisticParent

& of course I’m working to teach my kids appropriate volume and manners. But I’ve accepted that I have a legitimate sound sensitivity and it’s okay for me to help myself be more comfortable. When I’m more comfortable, I’m a better mom. #actuallyautistic #autisticparent #autisticmom
Photo of Dr Lovaas with the quote from him “You see, you start pretty much from scratch when you work with an autistic child. You have a person in the physical sense - they have hair, a nose and a mouth - but they are not people in the psychological sense. One way to look at the job of helping autistic kids is to see it as a matter of constructing a person. You have the raw materials, but you have to build the person."

Being a parent is just arguing with younger you 😢
Add in teens messing up routine & late night LOUD laughter on their devices 😬

I get overwhelmed every Sunday helping the teen list his school’s have to-s for the week, but eventually we both find pleasure in him completing the tasks plus staying on top of things.
