Autistic son dealing with people who don’t like him.

I’d like some advice for my 14 yo autistic son. He encounters people every day including family who I know don’t like him. He knows too and we often joke about how so and so is a jerk. But I would love to hear some laungauge or thoughts on how you or your kids deal with the people in uour lives who have no tolerance for your autism. The ones where going no contact is not possible. How are we dealing with these folks?? Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Is Karen a man?

We got our girls when they were around 4 weeks. They’re now nearly 9 weeks. We’ve had no eggs, but they seem fairly happy albeit a bit more skiddish than when they were when they were smaller. But one of our girls, Karen, is a little aggressive. She never eats the mealworms and definitely never from my hands. she’s the first one to to come out if I’m sitting in the coop but she tries to fly and fluffs her wings at me. She tries to peck her way out of the coop and has a genuinely grumpy demenor - I’m sure that sounds crazy? The other two hang back together and always eat the worms…something about Karen making me think they accidently shipped us a boy? I would love any thoughts on this and why they may not have layed eggs yet? We are doing high protein feed, sandbaths. They live in a hutch inside a coop and I let them out during the day and lock in hutch at night. Anyway, please send your thoughts!!

Lost our baby girl.

We lost our light last week. We thought we would grow old with you….not sure if any autistic parents can relate but would love advice on how to talk to my 14 yo neurodivergent son? He keeps bringing it up but he just apologizes for our loss…
