Autism Parenting Magazine Issue 185 Edição anterior

Before we gather around the table, the presents, or the tree, we often imagine food, festivities, and fun. Yet, sometimes this time of year brings chaos and noise when all is not calm and everything is too bright. This month’s theme is “Holiday Harmony and Family,” and depending on your child and family, you might not be looking forward to the surprises lurking around the corner. Will your favorite aunt have comments about your child’s picky eating? Will Grandpa find your child’s stimming to be odd? Will your close neighbor leave abruptly if your child screams when noise levels heighten or lights become too glaring? The tips and information in this issue are meant to help you and your child cope with all the merriment and “messyment” of the season. Then, maybe you’ll know just what to say to well-meaning family and friends. And hopefully, when the last ember dies, the final carol plays, and the lights have gone dark, you’ll all “sleep in heavenly peace.”

Happy reading!
