We have something similar local to us which we found particularly helpful in the early days when Primary School was a challenge. Being able to communicate directly to others was helpful, if only to know you are not alone. I am not aware though that any of these parents were autistic.

Since getting the diagnosis whilst at Secondary things have changed a bit with different challenges. It was also after this that I realised I am autistic. This can cause challenges, especially with finding times to be able to relax and zone out. From a perspective of an autistic with an autistic child it can be hard and this Forum has helped. Finding times to go for a walk are important as well as days off during school time.
