Toot

Another positive autistic parenting example:

I was a pre teen in a small prairie town in the 60's where every father wanted a hockey playing son.

When I asked, my mother showed me how to needlepoint. Just "sure". When my father came home and saw me I said to him my friends would tease me.

He shrugged, said "you can do it here" and walked out of the room

For both my autistic parents, every response was positive and very low key. No wonder my favorite word is laconic.
