Moments like this make it all worthwhile. This morning at breakfast, my 11-year-old, Alina, said, “Mom, I had a bad dream. I dreamt that I failed my Taekwondo test on Wednesday. I felt terrible.” I replied, “Oh, that sounds so upsetting, sweetheart. Why don’t you talk...

If you’re reading this post, we probably have a lot in common. I might have even felt some of the feelings you are feeling right now. When my son, Ben, was five, he was diagnosed with autism. I remember the moment the doctor told us Ben was on the spectrum, because I...
