[quote=Anonymous]Hi, our 9th grade daughter was diagnosed with autism this summer and I'm feeling out of my league to know how to approach some basic parenting with the ASD lens. (She also has ADHD and anxiety, so she is a wonderfully imaginative and creative teen girl with deep feelings who is also a social justice warrior, to a fault, and fits the definition if inflexible perfectly!) She has an amazing neurodiversity-affirming therapist, who is also helpful to us in some ways, but I'm trying to find a parenting expert that understands ASD that can help coach my husband and me. We want to be able to provide our daughter with the right balance of "accommodation" and loving pushes, for example. At any rate, does anyone have recommendations for resources/coaches for helping parents with ASD teen girls?[/quote]
