S4 E10 Identifying What Autism Families Need

Autisable Dads: Life with Autism from a Parents Perspective

I’m cautiously cynical these days.

My in-laws gave me a sign to hang on the wall in my office that reads “Sarcasm, just one of the services I offer“. Yeah, they know me well. Maybe it’s a GenX thing, I don’t know. Some of us are just built this way.
In one of my cynical moments, I noticed an ongoing trend over the years as people kept sharing with me various research studies. So this week, I dive into this subject a bit, and as a result, I’ve identified specific areas where families need help, and research isn’t really one of them at the moment.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for appropriate research needing to be done, but let’s just put this in perspective, shall we?

Millions of dollars are poured into autism research, and although I know that will and should happen, it does very little to help families of autistic kids in the here and now.
