My thoughts

It’s a really great morning

It was cute because Emmett said, Mommy you're in a really good mood this morning. To which she replied, that's because I finally got some good sleep.

Feeling Blessed: I have absolutely amazing news

"I rarely have news that is so positive that I might even sleep better but today is one of those days" ☺️

My teen with #Autism was frisked by police today and here’s what happened

"I was thinking to myself, OMG please let Gavin be okay with this because sometimes he can be unpredictable when it comes to being touched."

Gavin / General Update / My thoughts

I’m heartbroken because Gavin’s really beginning to struggle again :'(

"I can't adequately express how much this kills me. As his father, it's so hard to know that he's going through this and there's very little I can do to about it"

Feeding Problems / My thoughts / Sensory

Anything related to food is so stressful for my #Autism family 

"A picky eater will eat when they're hungry enough. An Autism and sensory kid will literally starve themselves if a food isn't sensory friendly"

I’m so overwhelmed by these newer behavioral problems 

We've discussed the behavioral issues and how it's presenting at least similarly to ODD though

We’re dealing with oppositional defiance again and it sucks

"For those who've dealt with this kind of thing, you know how exhausting this is"

So often people assume a child doesn’t have friends because they don’t always want to join the group. I came across this clip of this 2 year old upset and the caption was something like, if you're currently pregnant, this is what you have to look forward to in 2 years. I get the joke, as most parents would but I wanted to share a different take on this. What is the single biggest misconception about autism that you come across either in the general public or in the autism community itself?
