Autistic parents' views and experiences of talking about autism with their autistic children / Laura CRANE in Autism, 25-4 (May 2021)
[article]
Titre : Autistic parents' views and experiences of talking about autism with their autistic children Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Laura CRANE, Auteur ; Lok Man LUI, Auteur ; Jade DAVIES, Auteur ; Elizabeth PELLICANO, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1161-1167 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorders diagnosis disclosure family functioning and support parents Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Previous research examining how parents talk about autism with their children has tended to focus on parents who are not autistic themselves. We collected information on this topic from 34 autistic parents of autistic children (most of whom had told their children about their diagnosis). We found similarities, but also differences, between the views and experiences of autistic parents in this research and those reported in previous research (in studies of largely non-autistic parents). Similarities include the following: it is important to be open and honest about the diagnosis; the diagnosis should be introduced/discussed as early as possible; discussions should be tailored to each individual child's needs; and we should not overlook the challenges associated with autism, but it is important to focus on positive aspects too. Differences include the following: autistic parents used personal experiences in conversations about autism, which was felt to result in increased understanding and empathy with their children; autistic parents overwhelmingly focused on more positive aspects of an autism diagnosis; our sample did not express concerns that discussions could have negative consequences too (e.g. making children more anxious); and autistic parents did not want or need professional support to talk about autism with their children (instead, they felt confident in using their own knowledge/experiences to guide discussions).
