Building life skills is one of the most essential and foundational aspects of our approach, taking precedence over traditional academics. Life skills equip him with the tools he needs to navigate the world confidently and independently, fostering resilience, adaptability, and self-reliance. These skills form the backbone of his overall development, helping him build the capacity to handle everyday challenges, interact meaningfully with others, and care for himself. That said, academic learning is still very much a part of our routine. We incorporate it in a way that complements and enhances life skills, rather than competing with them. Academics are woven into real-life contexts—whether through counting while cooking, learning vocabulary in the context of daily activities, or practicing reading and writing through activities that align with his interests. This balanced approach ensures he develops both practical skills and academic knowledge, providing a well-rounded foundation during his formative years. 📌Michael is growing into the young man he’s meant to become, with hopes that one day he’ll also be prepared to be a caring partner, husband, and father. Every lesson, skill, and value we instill now is with an eye toward his future—not only for his independence but also for his ability to nurture meaningful relationships and contribute positively to the lives of those around him. Despite the challenges he faces, our goal is to help him build a strong foundation of empathy, responsibility, and resilience—qualities that will serve him well in every area of his life, both personal and professional. 📔eBook on Joint Attention & collection of activities, link in BIO 🔗 📔[NEW] eBook on a collection of activities for Speech Exercises, link in BIO 🔗 #heartwarming #parenting #autism #nonverbal #nonspeaking #ASL #signlanguage #screentime #representationmatters #handsome #toddlermom #autismadvocate #autismparenting #inspiration #motivation #autismawareness

By learning to communicate on his terms, I’m discovering a deep level of understanding of communication, that doesn’t rely on spoken language. This shared, silent language has become a bridge between us, allowing me to truly see his personality, emotions, and intentions in ways I might have missed otherwise. Through this connection, I’m reminded that communication is about presence, patience, and the willingness to see the world as he does. 📌 Continued in Pinned Comment at the end of the 🎥 📔eBook on Joint Attention & collection of activities, link in BIO 🔗 📔[NEW] eBook on a collection of activities for Speech Exercises, link in BIO 🔗 #heartwarming #parenting #autism #nonverbal #nonspeaking #ASL #signlanguage #screentime #representationmatters #handsome #toddlermom #autismadvocate #autismparenting #inspiration #motivation #autismawareness
