    Speech Therapy w/ Kristen Krapf

    One of the number one symptoms of autism is the speech delays. It's often times one of the first things a parent notices, when that milestone is missed for not only first words, but also conversational language. Joining me today is Kristen Krapf, a licensed speech therapist, who provided elucidation on the process of getting therapy, and what parents can expect from those services.

    The Benny Hill Episode ft Mom and Stepmom

    Joining me today are my mothers. We really tried to have a conversation about what its like to be grandparents to kids on the spectrum, but Logan had other plans. Chaos ensues, and Logan provides a solid demonstration on just how challenging some days can be, especially when you're trying to get things done.
