Overview

Raising a child with functional autism isn't about fixing them it's about understanding them. When the world sees a ""high functioning"" child, it often misses the struggle behind the smile. The meltdowns after school, the exhaustion after masking, the quiet moments of doubt parents never talk about. In The Parent's Handbook to Functional Autism, author Kevin Gill shares a deeply personal, down-to-earth guide for parents navigating life beyond the label. Drawing from his own journey raising a fully capable yet socially struggling son, Kevin offers honesty instead of perfection practical insight instead of jargon. Through stories, reflection, and guidance, he explores what ""functional"" really means, how to balance advocacy with selfcare, and how to help your child build confidence in a world that doesn't always understand. Whether you're at the start of diagnosis or years into the journey, this book will remind you that you're not alone and that ""different"" can be extraordinary.
