Understanding an autistic mother and the relationship you share

Meghan G. Graham’s guide considers how autism can shape a mother’s experience of parenting and the relationship between mother and adult child. It addresses sensory sensitivities and social pressures around parenting, while also making space for the adult child’s needs and self-advocacy. Expert advice is paired with accounts from autistic mothers and their children, bringing both perspectives into a discussion of understanding and connection. The book is framed for families where a mother is diagnosed, newly diagnosed, or may be autistic without a diagnosis.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adult children seeking context for a relationship with an autistic mother
  • Autistic mothers interested in perspectives from their adult children
  • Families looking for guidance on communication, acceptance, and mutual needs

Book overview

Explore the unique challenges autistic mothers face--from sensory sensitives to societal parenting pressures--with expert strategies, real-life stories, and inclusive support for neurodivergent families in this groundbreaking guide.

If you grew up with an autistic mother, you may still be trying to understand her. When Your Mom Is Autistic helps you better understand your mom's neurodivergence and strengthen your relationship--whether she has long identified as autistic, is newly diagnosed, or has never been diagnosed at all.

Inside, you'll better understand your mom's world and how autism shapes your relationship, while also advocating for yourself and honoring your own needs. Along with expert advice, you'll hear from children of autistic mothers and mothers themselves, who share their experiences and suggestions for creating more mindful, authentic connections.

When Your Mom Is Autistic will help you build a caring connection with your mother based on acceptance, authenticity, and love.
