Grocery Shopping and Nonverbal Autism

My son Cooper is 13 years old and he has a diagnosis of nonverbal autism. And I think of all the videos I’ve shared over the years, I am most excited about this one. Every skill we have worked on in his lifetime came out today. From walking to waiting to pushing a cart to following a list to accepting ‘no’ to negotiating for ‘more’ to bagging. And his joy! Oh my goodness his joy is unbelievable. He’s such a happy boy. We had so much fun today. Today took 13 years to accomplish. I am so proud of my son. If there are parents of younger children watching this, please know it takes time. And so much hard work and love and patience. And it’s all worth it.
