Training session for carers of autistic adults. Delivered by Sarah Barratt, an Educational Psychologist and carer of an autistic adult.

From the outside it looks like won't and feels like defiance, while from the inside it is experienced as can't, often activating a fight-flight, survival response.  The threat is in demand, demands that are both self-imposed and required by others.  How can one using a trauma informed parenting style, create a low demand life for the PDAer?
