Family life with autism! - Marriage Having a child with autism has a major impact on a family. Between the numerous emotional and behavior challenges, social issues, problems at school, professional therapies, and government agencies requirements, it puts ongoing stress and drain on any family. Often friends and relatives distance themselves and provide minimal help, leaving the parent(s) feeling isolated. In three separate posts I would like to hear what your experiences are (if you feel comfortable enough sharing). We will be looking at how the autism has affected your marriage, other children, and relatives. In this first post, I would like to hear how it has affected your marriage. I know there are many single parent families out there, but if this impacted your marriage, please share you experiences. I have found that the experience can either break up marriage, distance the partners, or bring everyone even closer. What is your experience, or those of other families you know?
