Autism test
Oh and have just remembered, husband and I did the autism test as per the link from the Channel 4 Embarrassing Bodies programme - I got 17 and he got 20! So nothing much conclusive there :) Several people have said to me that they think everyone, or lots of people, have autism in some way... could well be true, shame there is no easy test for it!
Our book, PDA in the Family, is out now! We wrote it to help other people understand more about Pathological Demand Avoidance. It's an account of how family life has been for us since an autism diagnosis for our youngest daughter, and the subsequent lightbulb moment when we heard about PDA: PDA in the Family: Life After the Lightbulb Moment Book Launch
