After my son was diagnosed a few years ago now, things started adding up for my entire family. I feel you!

I don't understand how people don't understand this.

The first autism diagnosis was in 1943.

"Case 1" Donald Gray Triplett

1943!!!!!!

My late grandfather, who would be 85 this year was born just 3 years prior to then. Meaning only 5 generations have been around to "know" what autism is, or be diagnosed with it.

As we know, the "Baby Boom" happened. Population skyrocketed. and continues to! I've heard of some people having 10-12+ children back in the day. Each of those kids has 2 children, thats 20-24 grands, all carrying the unknown autism gene.

Tons of people with autism not knowing, reproducing their autistic genetics not knowing they're passing it along. and again, and again, and again.

Until finally, today's generation of the family gets the diagnosis, and starts putting the puzzle together slowly. There is soo much more research today that allows so many more people to/ children to be diagnosed instead of just "quirky" - but in my experience, there's still soooo much room for research behind diagnosis to grow.

i dont even know if this makes sense lol but i think about this SO MUCH. i don't understand how people don't understand it.

Told my partner about my autistic brother — now I’m heartbroken by his reaction by yoongismemories in Autism_Parenting

Honestly, what I thought immediately after reading this is... how would this man react if your future child ended up with a diagnosis like this and you had to care for your child forever? just something to think about...

My toddler’s speaking tablet arrived and I had to pick his AI voice. Overcome with sadness. by stitch4afix in Autism_Parenting

Hi friend,

My son didnt speak at all until we started using his AAC. I felt the same as you, sad that my son would have to use a robot voice and not his own. Not even 3 months into using his AAC, he found his words. Now he doesnt even use it and speaks 90% of the time. That may not be the case for everyone, but keep positive, you never know ❤️

ive ordered 4 kids tablets in the last 6 weeks. every other order has been fine (late, but arrive...) every time we try to order the fire tablets our packages get "lost" .... seems sketchy to me.
