- Summary:
- "When you have a child with extra needs you can often feel under more scrutiny, from other parents, professionals and even myself. I know I felt this enormously when my child wasn't 'like the other autistic children' in school. I had a difficult time critiquing myself and my own parenting style. Was I parenting like this because I am a creative artist? Was it my upbringing? I was raised by artistic parents, while my husband was from a much more conventional, work driven family. Had these two contradictory backgrounds created an enigma of a child? I scrutinised everything in those dark days. I started to write and draw my experiences of parenting, partly to help me process it but also with the hope of connecting and resonating with other parents"-- Provided by publisher.
