In Part 2 of The Regulated Parent, Kay and Toyer move beyond the diagnosis itself and explore what the latest thinking in autism science is asking families to reconsider.
What happens when we stop asking, “How do we make this child more typical?” and start asking, “How does this child experience the world?”
This episode explores identity-first language, autistic identity, sensory processing, interoception, masking, communication beyond speech, the double empathy problem, nervous-system regulation, school, support, self-advocacy and the cost of simply “coping.”
It is also a deeply personal conversation about parenting with curiosity rather than fear, understanding behaviour as communication, and resisting the pressure to turn childhood into a treatment programme.
Because diagnosis does not give you a different child.
It can give you a deeper understanding of the autistic child who was there all along.
Warm, practical, scientifically informed and grounded in love, this episode asks perhaps the most important question after diagnosis:
What can we understand differently?
