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.

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"

Elliott / My thoughts

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

Hey everyone. Thank you for your interest in sharing your autism parenting story on The Autism Dad Podcast. I’ve been talking about a new podcast series I have in development, and so many of you have expressed interest in sharing your story. I finally got the sign-up form created and I wanted to share this and give everyone a chance to learn more and sign up if interested. I’ve been an autism dad for 25 years and I still struggle with self-care almost every single day. This year has been a tough one for me. Hey, I see you. I know how overwhelming, exhausting, and frustrating this journey can be. But here’s the thing, you matter too.
