Description

This insightful collection brings together diverse autistic voices to help parents better understand and support their child. It offers guidance on avoiding common misconceptions and mistakes while ensuring autistic children feel truly accepted, valued, and celebrated for who they are.

Many resources for parents come from professionals like psychologists, educators, and doctors, often providing a clinical perspective on autism. In contrast, *Sincerely, Your Autistic Child* is an authentic and essential resource written by autistic individuals themselves.

Covering topics such as childhood, education, culture, gender identity, and sexuality, this anthology shares the everyday experiences of growing up autistic. It offers an honest look at the emotions, sensitivities, and vibrant perspectives of autistic children, teens, and young adults. Contributors reflect on their own journeys, offering insight into what they wish their parents had understood and advice on overcoming challenges while raising an autistic child.

Part memoir, part guide, and part heartfelt message, *Sincerely, Your Autistic Child* is a must-read for parents and allies. It provides a rare and valuable window into the lived experiences of autistic individuals, fostering greater understanding and support.
