This podcast was started for parents and caregivers raising autistic children, but has evolved, and we have listeners across the world who are relatives of someone with autism, special education teachers, and other professionals. My son Jordan was diagnosed with autism when he was 5 years old, now 29. I have been where you are. Jordan will likely never live independently. I am in the trenches every day, just like you. Each week, for 20 minutes or less (most episodes), I discuss topics that directly impact your life on this unique parenting journey. info@notyouraverageautismmom.com

BEST OF SUMMER Series - The Inclusion Debate; What Works, What Doesn't and Why It Matters

BEST OF SUMMER SERIES FINALE 🌞

Back-to-school is here… and with it comes big decisions.

Does inclusion really work for my child? What if it’s too much—or not enough? How do I even know what’s best?

This final episode in our Best of Summer series is one you don’t want to miss.
Why? Because inclusion isn’t one-size-fits-all, and this conversation will help you figure out what’s right for YOUR children, right now.

Join Shannon as she unpacks the nuances of inclusion, breaking it down by age groups and sharing real-life scenarios to help you navigate this complex decision. You’ll learn why the IEP is a fluid document, how to reassess your child’s needs over time, and why what works now might not work later.

Whether you’re considering inclusion for the first time or reevaluating your current plan, this episode offers practical strategies, thoughtful insights, and a reminder that YOU are the expert on your child’s needs.
