I have 3 kids 6, 4 and 3 years old, my six year old is not on the spectrum, my 4 year old got diagnosed autistic in April it was a really shock and learning curve all at the same time for me, I haven't really met any other parents but i felt ok and quiet adapt to cope with it, however today nursery have said that I should get my 3 year old son tested as he is displaying some autistic traits, i feel quiet sad, to go from knowing nothing about Autism to possibly have to kids diagnosed in quick succession. It annoys me slightly you can have 2 kids who may be autistic 1 definitely but there is no rhyme or reason why, you just learn to live with it. my 4 year old is a girl.
has anyone else had this? am i right to have mixed emotions, i adore my children but it's hard not to worry about there futures xx
