Sunshine Support - So many autistic young people are missed until they get to teenage years (some of us were missed until adult years!) but typically these observations of an Autistic teen's presentation are common in our experience (as Autistic adults ourselves, as parents of Autistic children and as professionals who work in the field of SEND). What else would you add? A child doesn't need to present with all of these, but we do need to explore these points of presentation as often they mean a young person needs some help and support as they transition into adults. 🟠We will cover this at length in our webinar on 1st November...
