Wow 🤩 your response was so beautifully written and eloquent. Beyond that, you approach everything with such grace and kindness. Your point about the world: how our disabled child must adjust to the world’s “rules” rather than the world being open to make space for our children. I find it’s the not my autistic child and her special needs that is the most challenging part of all this. It os the world around her that is the hardest element to deal with. Wanting her to conform to its space. The silent or not so silent judgement, the stares, the looks of disgust, the eye rolls, etc. I thank you so much for shining light on these topics. Truly, you’re awesome.

I’m so happy I found your Substack! Your voice is powerful, clear, and so needed. Thank you for putting words to what so many of us have felt but couldn’t always articulate. I’ll be following closely as a mother in the trenches alongside you. If you’d ever like to be a guest on my podcast, I’d love to have you on the show.
