No faith in parents

autismtwo

I have no faith in my parents,, I feel they are not there for me both generally and in emergencies,, I would even go as far as to say,, half my autism is due to them growing up with out guidance, support and a safety net.

Does anyone else have no faith in there parents, and do you think it is linked to your autism spectrum or do you think it is just the autism spectrum making me think like this ?

    I am sorry to read of your experience. It is very difficult to cope with, both before and after diagnosis. I am "fortunate" in that i also have aspergers which enables me to have an amazing relationship with with my son. Don't get me wrong - we fall out - and when we do it is quite spectacular. Probably one of my biggest mistakes was to listen to the "experts", them and the bad parent police! My own instincts have always served us better but it's sometimes hard to follow them.
