These words have been said to my daughter so many times when she's completely overwhelmed.
I know it can be hard to know what to do in these moments. I know it can come from a place of panic, not knowing how to support or worrying about the impact on others.
But if there's one thing I wish everyone supporting autistic children knew, it's that in those moments, they don't need us to ask for calm. They need us to help them to safety. 🩷
