Some autistic kids don’t understand when a request is genuinely impossible:

▪️Asking for a broken object to work exactly the way it did before
▪️Asking for a food or product that is completely sold out
▪️Asking to go somewhere that is closed
▪️Asking to bring back an item that was lost and cannot be found
▪️Asking for the weather to change
▪️Asking to make a character in a book or video do something different
▪️Asking to make a pet behave in a very specific way on command
▪️Asking to make someone stop crying, coughing, or making another involuntary sound

Repeated attempts to help them achieve the impossible can keep hope alive and ultimately make the disappointment BIGGER.

So when the request is impossible, show them you understand what they want,
then be clear that it cannot happen.

Your job is not to prevent disappointment, it’s to give clear information and help them through it.

In therapy, kids can practice accepting an alternative after a small, less-important request cannot be met.

Over time, kids can build more flexibility, tolerate disappointment, and learn what to do when the answer truly cannot change 💙

My heart is so full 🥹💖 Yesterday’s #Unstoppable ADHD Creator Summit was truly one of the most meaningful days of my life 🥰

Growing up, I spent so many years feeling misunderstood and wishing I could change the things that made me different. I wish my younger self could have seen yesterday. 😭💕 A room full of incredible, creative minds coming together, sharing their stories, and celebrating everything that makes us unique.

To everyone who joined us, thank you for reminding me why this mission means so much. I hope you left feeling as seen, understood, and inspired as I did. 🥹✨

A special thank you to @LoopEarplugs for helping bring this dream to life and supporting our mission to make a lasting difference for the ADHD community, and to @Understoodorg, @MentalHealthCoalition, and @JedFoundation for being such incredible partners. 💖

This is just the beginning. We’re not alone, we’re not defined by our differences, and together, we’re UNSTOPPABLE. 🦋💕
