We have so many obligations in life – add to that managing children with diagnosed autism and all that comes with creating an environment of success for them (school, behavioral and speech therapy, and extracurricular activities) that anything outside of these tasks can become overwhelming. Something like travel (a right of every individual) can turn into a series of huge obstacles and discourage you from traveling with your children.

 

I understand this ALL TOO WELL. My daily activities consist of taking my son to school, working from home, taking him to therapy appointments, swim lessons, grocery runs, and whatever else is on the days’ schedule. I usually opt for quick meals (30 minutes or less) and by the end of the day, we’re ALL exhausted!

​

However, a diagnosis should not stop you from exploring the world with your child – and that’s where I come in.
