Send us a text Navigating the world of autism parenting can be overwhelming, especially when you're just starting out. Our guest today, Kyle Jetsel, a father of six, two of whom are on the autism spectrum, opens up about his journey into the heart of autism parenting. Kyle generously shares his own family's trials, triumphs, and strategies, offering guidance, encouragement, and camaraderie to other parents on a similar journey. Kyle's story is not a straightforward one. Struggling to manage his son's autism, he developed a unique system - the COST system - to respond to his children's unique needs. This system, despite its simplicity, helped his family to thrive amidst the chaos. Kyle's sharing of his family's story, from handling sibling rivalry to dealing with meltdowns, provides practical strategies for creating a harmonious home environment. But there's more to autism parenting than just strategy. Kyle speaks passionately about the importance of love in helping children with autism. It's not enough to just say the words; children must feel it. Kyle believes that maintaining an stress-free and loving environment can play a pivotal role in helping children with autism. This episode provides a heartfelt look into the power of love and patience in the face of adversity. Join us as we travel with Kyle through his enlightening journey of autism parenting. https://tonymantor.com https://Facebook.com/tonymantor https://instagram.com/tonymantor https://twitter.com/tonymantor https://youtube.com/tonymantormusic intro/outro music bed written by T.
