Autism. It’s Not Our Children Who Need to Change - It’s the World.
Manage episode 505887783 series 3653279
In this heartfelt episode, we dive into a truth every autism parent needs to hold onto: our children don’t need to change - the world does.
I’ll share the story of Marcus, an 8-year-old boy who came home from school every day emotionally drained from masking and trying to fit into rules that didn’t honor who he truly was. His mom’s breakthrough moment, telling him he could simply be himself, sparked not only relief but also a powerful call to action: acceptance has to go beyond the home.
Join me as we unpack why masking is so exhausting, what authentic acceptance really looks like, and how you can start advocating for spaces that celebrate your child exactly as they are. This conversation will leave you encouraged, equipped, and reminded that your child’s brilliance doesn’t need fixing - it needs seeing.
