"At the risk of sounding like a terrible parent, I'm going to admit that my oldest son Gavin, is driving me absolutely bat shit crazy. Some would argue that's a short trip and frankly, they're probably right"
It's one of those days where I can actually step back and ask myself how the heck am I doing this?
"It's been three nights in a row now that I've ended is camping out on the couch with a sick Emmett"
As the title states, you might be an Autism parent is you can relate to the picture in the image below. If you can't, let me explain.
"With that in mind, I'm going to just hope for a nice balance of shit and rainbows... This is especially true in regards to Gavin's and all he's going through."
"Something as simple as a runny or stuffy nose is a truly miserable experience for him because of the way his brain processes the sensory input."
Sometimes we don't need words because a picture can say it all in total silence..
"It was a other night that ended in very little sleep. Mr. Emmett was simply unable to fall asleep and he and I camped out in the living room in an attempt to salvage as much sleep as possible."
