There are nights that don’t end when you get home. This was one of them — a night that spilled into the next day, lingering in my body long after everyone was asleep. They follow you into the quiet, into the replaying, into the questions you didn’t have the energy to answer out loud.
Not every autism or ADHD parent shares their journey online — and that’s okay. This is a letter to the mums and dads who parent quietly, privately, and with so much love, even when the world never sees a moment of it.
💛 No two autistic children are the same. In this heartfelt post, a mum shares her daughter’s journey from silence to saying “I love you, Mum,” and explores the beautiful diversity of autism — from Level 1 to Level 3, verbal to non-verbal — with love, honesty, and hope.
