What if your child’s “good behavior” is hiding the real problem?

Some kids have learned to perform during autism assessments.
They make eye contact. Nod at the right time. Smile on cue.

And they get labelled “fine.”

Meanwhile, no one sees the social fatigue. The shutdowns. The meltdowns at home.

If your child is “getting through” assessments by masking...
That report is lying — and so is the plan that follows.

​In this new video, we break down:

• Why masking can make assessments dangerously misleading
• What a safe, strengths-based approach actually looks like
• How to help professionals see who your child really is

If you’ve ever felt like your child’s potential was buried under politeness or pressure…
​This will shift everything.​
