Course introduction
Receiving an autistic diagnostic for your child can be scary or confusing. We don’t grow up being told how to interact with autistic people, let alone parent them. At the same time, children will continue to grow up rapidly, learning about the world, and being confused as well. Although there is work that only professionals can do, there are fundamental notions that can help your child as well as yourself.
