When support groups do not match your perspective

I finally found a support group for parents of autistic children but when I went everyone just complained about their kids and I left feeling worse because I actually like spending time with my daughter.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The assumption that disability creates uniform parental experience ignores the diversity of both challenges and joys within neurodivergent families.
