If you've ever shared something vulnerable about your non-speaking child on social media, or felt the pull to, this episode is for you.
I recorded this for the Autism Changemakers Podcast because I saw a post recently from a mom I respect deeply. She shared an honest, graceful moment after an intense day with her son. It was beautiful. And it also made something rise up in me that I knew I had to talk about, because there's more here than most parents realize.
What you share online about your child today can shape how people treat them tomorrow. Schools look at your social media. Districts look at your social media. People in your community, sometimes quietly, sometimes anonymously, are forming opinions based on what they see. And they're only seeing a glimpse.
In this episode I talk about:
Your child's story deserves to be told. And you deserve real support, not comment section support. Not likes and shares.
A private room full of people who already understand your life.
