This is an article about a study done on the bonds mothers have with their nonspeaking autistic children :)
It was lovely to read, especially after everything that’s been going on with Sia and Yale. This is a big step in the right direction! Parenting based on acceptance, not the deficit model.

Hi everyone, it's Eden here.
This will be the home of The Autisticats on Mastodon :)
I'll be posting most of what I post on our other social media accounts here as well. And I'll likely post some things here that I don't post elsewhere. Not sure about the other admins. We'll see!
I like that this platform isn't corporate-owned, and I think it's going to be a very sustainable option for us moving forward. Thanks for tagging along!
