How Can I Voice My Opinions/concerns As A Step-parent?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hello all I'm recently married to a single father that has two boys with ASD. While they are diagnosed and in a special needs program through the public school district I don't believe he is doing everything that he can to meet their needs. How do i approach him with what I think is best? (I am an elementary school teacher and I have some experience working with children on the spectrum and different strategies to use )

Perhaps you could let him know that you understand how distressing it is to see these kids struggling.maybe suggest that you want to do everything you can to help him & the kids and ask if you could chat about the things that worry him the most.myou could then respond with some of your experiences with kids with similar issues and what you witnessed. Trying to work as a team to find best solutions is usually non threatening. The key is getting him to identify how he thinks things could be improved.
