Autistic mum to autistic 5yo & baby. Tweeting about motherhood, depression, anxiety, autism, or maybe just having a moan. My dog is my therapist, he's awesome.

@MooseAllain Long standing feud with horrid neighbour eventually led to me using a trowel to flick slugs over the fence into her garden. It was only when one hit her in the face I found out she had been standing the other side of the fence eavesdropping on us.

What are we doing tonight Brain?
What we do every night Pinky:
Catastrophising about what will happen if we punch school staff in the face tomorrow 👍

Thinking of all the wonderful women I've been mothered by over the years. They have made all the difference.

@thewondthewhy This is good news, I had been thinking my longest relationship was my unwavering love of learning about autism. A relationship with a person sounds much healthier!

Hours of negotiation with P today about how we're going to navigate a Santa visit. Agreed to ask he does not make eye contact without her permission and she doesn't have to talk. Next fucker who tries to tell me she's NT is getting headbutted, with jingle fucking bells on. 🎄🔔🎅

@autiegethernow Brilliant! If I fail at all other aspects of parenting her reading still makes me feel like maybe I am doing something right!

[BetterKindThanRight @BTBKTR]

I just shouted "Go to your room!" then watched with pride as P stopped to pick up her book. If she's going to be banished from my attention for 5 mins she's damn well not doing it without reading material 😆📖👧🤓
