I posted a question on my Facebook page yesterday, asking Autism parents if they ever get a break. The results were heartbreaking but sadly not all that surprising.

The actual thread is embedded below if you want to check it out and share your thoughts about whether or not you get a break.

As an #Autism parent, how often do you get a break?

Autism parents as a whole, don’t get the breaks they desperately need. Some people do and that’s amazing but so many others don’t. Lizze and I are blessed with occasional breaks that we are incredibly grateful for.

We’ve established that Autism parents don’t get many breaks, but we should discuss why that is. Why don’t Autism parents get breaks?
