Today, we are exploring something that has really made a difference to me as a mom, finding your center while you are in the middle of an autism parenting storm. So, have you ever seen footage of a hurricane? From above? There is chaos and destruction swirling around.
You'll see a cow flying past. Maybe you'll see a refrigerator, but right in the middle is something quite remarkable. The eye of the store. Perfectly calm. While everything around it rages, that image has become my favorite metaphor for autism Parenting. The storms will come meltdowns in public places, sleep progressions that leave you exhausted.
IEP meetings that don't go as planned, well-meaning, but really hurtful comments from relatives. These external circumstances are often. Beyond our control. But what if? What if instead of trying to control all those external forces, we are focused on creating and maintaining that calm center within ourselves.
