Amazingly Autistic with Bailey Shea

I have some exciting things planned for this podcast. As far as life goes, I’m doing as good as I can do ,making the best of it, and counting my blessings. It’s hard to do that, but it’s possible.

Wearing a mask is trial and error and it takes getting used to , especially if you’re autistic.

People with autism and their families should be free to express their thoughts and feelings about autism. If they’re negative, it doesn’t necessarily mean they hate themselves, hate their child, or hate autistic people.

Parents should involve their child in any autism advocacy and activism they do. They should never post videos of them having meltdowns or blogs that address any habits without their consent.

Becoming a self-advocate is pretty easy, but not without challenges. You’ll have to overcome fear of what others think. You’ll have to keep yourself from being discouraged.

I give my thoughts on this controversy. Children are not a check or meal ticket. They’re humans.

I talk about how I learned how to make and keep friends. I give encouragement to other autistic people who have been struggling with this their whole lives just like I’ve been. I’ve came so far when it comes to this. If I can, you can (and will!).

I explain how I deal with stress as someone with autism.

We all know exercise is good for us, but there are ways exercise is especially good for those like me who have autism.

I discuss bullying and what I believe is the problem behind it.
