This whole "self care" thing has been kind of rough for a lot of us in this community. This was one of two posts (the other is at https://feministaspie.wordpress.com/2015/05/15/what-self-care-means-to-me-autismpositivity2015/) where i did not feel triggered or ashamed or upset. I love and honor your deep respect for your daughter and both of your efforts to practice genuinely helpful self-care. love, FSM
oh, man! I'm sorry that it's been rough for you. But thanks for the feedback. You know, I recognise how hard things are for Autistic adults in this word, and I just hope that I can make things easier for my kids and their peers as they grow up. It's all about respect, all the time. Love to you, Michelle.
This is one of the best parenting essays I have ever read.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I quite like what I just saw of your blog.... will have to read more :-)
