Manage episode 447632272 series 3362345
Ever wondered how a simple water balloon fight could turn into an unforgettable lesson on resilience and understanding? Join me in this heartwarming episode of the Parenting Severe Autism podcast where I share some of our family's most cherished memories, like Jacob's adventurous spirit during our quirky door-knocking sales days, his creative costume designs, and the pride we all felt when he caught his first fish. These stories not only entertain but also shed light on the unique joys and trials of raising a child with severe autism, emphasizing the importance of connection with those who share similar experiences.
Transitioning to a new environment brings its own set of challenges, and our move to Jefferson, Wisconsin was no exception. I open up about the importance of maintaining communication with educators through tools like a daily feedback notebook and how it played a crucial role in understanding Jacob's school days. This episode also touches on the significance of involving children in 'adult' discussions about changes, such as moving homes, to better prepare them for life's transitions. By sharing these experiences, I aim to foster a sense of community and offer insights into creating a supportive and understanding environment for families navigating severe autism.
