 In this episode, join us as we explore the challenges and triumphs of encouraging independence. 

As a parent, we want our kids to be as independent as possible, that is our goal. But it is really hard when that child has special needs and you are trying to strike a balance between support and independence. 

It is a challenging a beautiful journey and I've cried. Not because I'm sad, but more that I'm really happy I can help my son Jack become more independent. 

Tune in for an emotional and enlightening episode that celebrates the resilience of both parents and their autistic children, reminding us all that empowerment is a journey worth taking.
