The Quiet Fight

An Autism Journeyman’s Notebook

I’m Chris—a father who had to learn that my autistic son didn’t need me to fix him. He needed me to understand him. This is my notebook: the fear, the mistakes, the fights, the lessons, and the moments of absolute happiness that came with raising and advocating for Jared. I’m not a clinician. I’m a father who has been through it—and I am with you.
