S4 E8 What Motivates Us
Manage episode 321286926 series 2275189
I don't often share is why after so many years I am more involved in the community now than I was before. To some, it's teaching the world about autism from a dad's perspective. And yes, I do that when it is possible for a teaching moment to occur. I've also shared openly that my selfish goal is to learn more about my son... and that has always remained the case.
But this journey has shown me one inherent truth: this effort is not just about my own selfish needs or desires. Over the years I've seen far too often news reports that break my heart. I've read thousands of articles on Autisable that have offered some deep insight into the thoughts of other parents and autistic individuals that have both enlightened - and were also warning signs.
You see, years ago I was talking with my good friend Rob Gorski about the news of an autism mom just 'snapping' and committing the worst thing any parent could think of doing... harming their own child - and then themselves.
With this in mind, I share my personal insight as to what motivates me to keep doing what I do here on Autisable.
