For fathers, and whoever else carries it
A questionnaire for fathers of autistic children, and anyone else who does the carrying. It asks about where your son or daughter is today, then lays out the range of what the years ahead could hold, and which of it you can actually move.
No one can tell you what your child will be like at thirty. Anyone who says otherwise is selling something. The research this is built on describes groups of children, and a group average says almost nothing certain about one person.
So this does not give you a number. It gives you a range, honestly drawn, and it names the handful of things that decide where inside that range you end up. That is a smaller promise than a prediction. It is also the true one, and it turns out to be the more useful of the two.
How he communicates and how much he understands, reading, being with other people, doing things for himself, hard days and what surrounds them, his body, what he loves, what support exists around him, and four questions about you.
Around fifteen minutes, one question at a time. It adapts as it goes, so a six-year-old and a sixteen-year-old get different forms. You can stop and come back; it remembers.
