Terms of Use

Everything here comes from my life as a dad raising autistic kids. It isn't medical, legal, financial or therapy advice, and it can't replace the people who know your child. Please talk with your child's doctor, therapists, school team or a lawyer about decisions that matter. If someone is in danger, call 911.

Guests on the podcast and people I link to speak for themselves. Their views aren't always mine.

The writing, audio, video and images here belong to me unless they say otherwise. Please share links and short quotes with credit to The Autism Dad and a link back. Don't copy whole posts, episodes or images onto another site, or sell them, without asking me first.

• Be kind. Parents come here on their hardest days.
• No harassment, hate, spam, sales pitches or anyone's private information, including your child's.
• Comments are reviewed before they appear. I may decline or remove any comment.
• You're responsible for what you post, and by posting you let me show it on this site.

I link to other websites, products and services. I don't control them, and their own terms and privacy policies apply once you leave this site. Some links earn me money, and the disclosure page explains how.

The Rapid Response tools give you sample letters and call scripts. You decide what to send, and to whom, and you're responsible for what you send.

I work to keep things accurate and current, but I can't promise the site will always be available, error-free or up to date. You use it at your own risk, and to the extent the law allows, The Autism Dad isn't liable for losses that come from using it.

If these terms change, this page changes with them, and the date at the top will say when. Your privacy is covered separately on the privacy page.
