This blog is the space that I have created to share with other parents following the journey of raising an autistic child and what we have done to keep him safe. I will share with you resources, tips and stories that I have learned over the years of raising my autistic son in hopes to help you answer your questions. I invite others to ask questions and share their own stories of motherhood in rais
ing an autistic child. I am not an expert in safety and I will not by any means say I have the answers to autism and safety. I do believe that my husband and I have put in a lot of effort through countless hours of research and trial and error that we have had many successes and some failures that I can share and hope you can take our successes to help your home. There is no “right” or “wrong” way to preventing accidents. Every child is different and they all test their bounds in different ways but Autistic children do tend to have some tendencies that are safety potentials and hazards and by sharing our experiences and knowledge with each other, I believe that we can make the environment for our child a safer place allowing us to spend less energy on finding the next hazard and more energy on enjoying our little ones. I hope you find this blog helpful as well as fun and interesting.
