    It is hilarious how courses for parents with ASD children (at least here) assume NT parents instead of considering that this frequently hereditary condition miiiiight beeeee inherited from somewhere. So they try to help by explaining how ASD children behave so you can help them adapt to regular society.

    So, your child may need to have some daily time to recharge by themselves without interruptions.

    Yes, that’s pretty normal isn’t it?

    Social interactions with groups and loud noises may be stressful for your child.

    Yes, aren’t they inherently stressful?

    Your child may need to be told in advance how a family gathering will go, for how long, what to expect of them, and given explicitly stated options to leave to chill out if it’s too much.

    Yes, isn’t that something you should do with all children?

    Also, your child may find it unbearable to wear clothing with some textures.

    …Yes?
