So Your Child Is Autistic, and You're Going to Teach Them Yourself: A Realist's Guide - Paperback

The diagnosis just landed. Everyone keeps saying it'll be fine. Nobody is telling you what to actually do next.

This is the book that does.

When your autistic child's education lands in your hands, you don't need cheerful reassurance or one more promise that the right program will fix everything. You need the honest version - what's really going on inside your child, what home education genuinely costs and gives, and how to teach the specific, spiky, remarkable kid in front of you.

Written by an educator who has spent years alongside families in exactly your position, this is the realist's guide the subject has been missing. No toxic positivity. No false cures. No pretending the hard parts aren't hard - just a clear map, drawn by someone who knows the territory.

Because the most important resource in the house is a parent who isn't running on empty.
