The Importance of Communication in Parenting Advice for Autistic Children

Autistic parents have an opportunity to empathize in a way that is particularly unique. Neurotypical parents can absolutely do this, but I think my experience as an autistic person who has those behaviors and during my time in which I was undiagnosed, spent years suppressing those behaviors with limited success, I know kind of what to look for. The other sort of piece to highlight here is that autistic fathers and mothers and non-binary parents can be part of autism community that includes other autistic adults,. Other autistic children, teenagers, professionals in the space and advocates.
