Understanding autism has changed over time from the internal neuroscience definition to the external early development definition, and all points in between. Labelling a child is a personal parental choice, Samera and Hayley discuss the advantages and disadvantages. The diagnosis process, from who is responsible, to the diagnostic tools used and what to expect on assessment day are outlined in this episode. ‘Ask a question and they will find the answer!’
If you are new to autism and parenting, the first series of the Quirky and Autistic Parenting podcast is just for you. Episodes are published fortnightly.
