I have registered because I have a friend who has a teenage son with Autism and who at the moment is really struggling. She and her husband and daughter have done wonders, but this past year has seen a tragic bereavement, and many other changes within their close-knit family and I hope that by registering,I can support her by collecting information which she might then find helpful. At the same time, I believe that it will help me to be more sympathetic and perhaps enable me to understand what I might be able to do.

HI @PegsPendorf, welcome to the community, I hope you find it useful, and nice to hear that you're keen to support your friend. You might find the 'parents and carers' and 'Learning difficulties and autism' pages of particular interest.
