I unpack what changed for her brain, her motivation, and our relationship, and I cite research showing AAC does not block speech and can increase it. Key TakeawaysAAC (signs, PECS, devices) gives a child a reliable voice now...

This week on the podcast I asked a question that might sting a little:How are you benefiting by keeping your autistic child in diapers?I know your gut reaction might be “I’m not benefiting, Michelle! I want my child out of diapers.”But here’s the thing—every family I’ve coached has blind spots.

They just make you human. But
