In this episode, we sit down with Glenn (with two Ns!), known online as @AutismWithFreddie, for a refreshingly honest chat about raising his 14-year-old son Freddie, who is autistic and non/pre-verbal. We talk about: 🍼 The years-long journey to potty training success 🐷 Freddie's unshakeable love of Peppa Pig (even at 14!) 🥔 Being a certified \"Pringles snob\" and other sensory food quirks 💔 Denial after diagnosis, and why so many marriages struggle after an autism diagnosis 👨‍👧‍👦 Co-parenting, respite, and why some dads stay quiet about it all 🎭 An unforgettable sensory-friendly trip to see The Lion King 🗣️ Why dad voices are so underrepresented in the SEN/autism community and why that needs to change Glenn isn't a professional or an \"agony uncle\" he's just a dad living it every day, and his honesty, humour, and heart make this one of our most relatable episodes yet. 💬 If you're a dad raising a child with additional needs and have felt alone in it Glenn's DMs (and ours) are always open. 📌 Follow Glenn: @AutismWithFreddie🧡 Support the podcast: Join our Patreon community for weekly bonus episodes🎧 New episodes every week subscribe & turn on notifications!
