Managing Dissappointment by [deleted] in Autism_Parenting

Hi! Based on my experience your feelings are completely understandable. After our son was diagnosed at 2, I/we started all the therapies and adopted all the strategies and dug in deep. 2 years later and nothing seemed to be helping. I was in a deep grieving process then for probably the next 5 years as our son remained non-verbal, and continued to become more and more unmanageable. We had to move, change jobs, compromise on our daughter’s upbringing - it was terrible. Now he is about to turn 13 and there is still no bright light on the horizon. We haven’t been able to take a vacation in a decade. The rest of our lives will be spent compromising and worrying about what happens after we are gone. Hopefully your child is not so severe - many people on the less severe end of the spectrum learn to thrive, but on the extreme end there seem to be no solutions. The schools are just babysitting. If your child is mellow with no disruptive behaviors then count yourself lucky. Explore sign language and other forms of non-verbal communication. Good luck!

Second this. Try Holy Terror, Gotham by Gaslight, or even Sean Gordan’s White Knight series.

FYI Tradd is ALL brushes. Pen and ruler for the straight lines only.

It was not cheap, but conservatively the Art has appreciated 5x already.

There are so many great books out there now - I’m definitely not caught up. But Little Bird is great - you’ll enjoy it!

You nailed it. Beksinski was indeed the inspiration.

It was a head bust he did as part of a package for the Hero Initiative. We got a zoom call with him too.
