Ensuing

Have you ever heard the expression Kids dont come with instructions? Well, try to understand what that really means to a single parent who is struggling with raising a child with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Rarely do we hear about the reality that accompanies a struggle. The truth is that some parents would just rather not expose themselves or their child by being truthful about their reality on the spectrum. Exposure can open the door to judgment and ridicule, and no one wants to deal with that. On the other hand, exposure can help others acknowledge and understand your reality; it can also bring about acceptance. Exposing your reality will have people wondering who you really are. No one truly knows your strengths or weaknesses until your reality is exposed. This book is based on the reality of a single parent raising her beautiful autistic daughter. The writers reality is not exactly what most people expect to read or hear. The reality will give readers a deeper understanding of what parents, families, caregivers, and most importantly, people with autism and ASD actually go through. The reality is not just a challenge; it can be embarrassing, upsetting, and cruel. However, the best thing you will discover is that there is a great degree of resiliency and love like no other. Read it, enjoy it, and respect it because it is more than you could ever imagine.
