Public outings can be stressful. Parents often look for tips on planning ahead, using visuals, practicing skills at home, and creating a predictable routine for shopping trips.
Consistency helps children understand expectations. Parents often want to know how follow‑through builds predictability, reduces confusion, and supports skill development.
It can be hard to know how to respond in the moment. Many parents ask what not to do, such as avoiding accidental reinforcement of behaviors or reacting in ways that increase stress.
Parents often wonder how to help their child engage with reading. Evidence‑based strategies—such as breaking tasks into small steps, using visual supports, and reinforcing progress—can make literacy more accessible and enjoyable.
April is Autism Awareness Month and an excellent opportunity to promote and draw attention to the tens of thousands facing an autism diagnosis each year. #lightitupblue
