Are parents of children on the autism spectrum raising kids with mental telepathy powers — or is that just a fascinating myth? And can you really self-diagnose autism in today’s world of digital information overload?

In this powerful episode, Chuck Tuck sits down with Dr. Theresa Lyons to unpack the truth behind autism, offering parents clarity, compassion, and hope. Together, they explore how neurodiversity, parenting, mental health, diet, and communication shape life on the spectrum. You’ll learn why some children may lose their autism diagnosis over time, how diet and nutrition can ease symptoms, and why understanding the difference between meltdowns and tantrums is key to calmer homes.

Dr. Lyons also dives into the challenges of self-diagnosis and the ongoing debate around communication tools for non-verbal individuals, grounding every insight in years of research and personal experience. Most importantly, this episode reminds every parent that autism isn’t a verdict—it’s a journey of understanding, patience, and connection.

If you’re curious, a parent feeling overwhelmed, or seeking trusted guidance, you’re not alone. Join this heartfelt conversation, share it with someone who needs support, and help spread awareness and hope across the neurodiversity community.
