A recently published large-scale study found that 1 in 5 siblings of autistic children end up being diagnosed with autism themselves.

A recently published large-scale study found that 1 in 5 siblings of autistic children end up being diagnosed with autism themselves. Based on data from 1,605 children across 18 sites in the US, Canada, and the UK, the study also revealed some interesting new information about how the number of autistic siblings and their gender may impact a child’s risk of having autism. Namely, if a family’s first autistic child is a girl, their second child is 50% more likely to be autistic than if they had an autistic boy first. Also, kids with two or more autistic siblings have a 37% chance of being autistic, while that likelihood is 21% for kids with only one autistic sibling. . . . ➡ If you are an Autistic Person of Colour in Scotland, ask to join our safe and sensitive WhatsApp support group by sending a message to 07793549733 #AutismAwareness #Neurodiversity #SEMA #AutisticSupport #UnderstandingAutism #CommunicationMatters

This are harsh days. Things are getting out of hands. It seems that everything I do has to be bad, and my executive functions are at their worst. I’m worried about the fact that trying to cope with that is going to lead to another depressive episode. #adhd #mentalhealth #autisticsupport #autism

From Reframing Autism:

A list of tips to reduce demands for the PDAer in your life shorturl.at/9zNe4

#autism #PDA #AutisticPDA #PathologicalDemandAvoidance #PervasiveDriveForAutonomy #AutisticSupport #AutisticAcceptance #AutisticAccommodations #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs
Against a blue background with Reframing Autism logo at the top and knotwork in the bottom right, a white title reads 'Tips to Reduce Demands for the PDAer in Your Life'. Beneath, a list of text boxes with switch bullet points read: 'Introduce play and creativity. Including our interests and novelty can make transitions easier. Give us choice and control to preserve our autonomy: by giving us buy-in, you invite our collaboration. Offer to be our ‘body double’ and join us in the task to lighten our load. A job shared is a job halved. Speak declaratively rather than commandingly. We feel safer when you value us equally. Avoid punishments and incentives. They can make your love or acceptance feel conditional. Pick your battles: focus on achieving the end goal, rather than taking the perfect path to get there.'
