Episode 8 - Autism Awareness (ft. Jonathan Crow)

In this episode of the DTALKS Podcast, the dads talk with special guest host Jonathan Crow about his experience raising a son with autism. It was an eye opening experience.

Some of the content might be seem a bit on the WTF side and may make some listeners uncomfortable, but keep in mind that parents of kids with autism face these challenges every day. It's not a part of their reality and is not a WTF moment for them. 

Two hours is simply not enough time to cover everything we wanted to, but we are really excited to share this glimpse into a world that a lot of people don't always understand. 

Here are some suggestions regarding Autism from Jonathan 

• http://www.tacanow.org/ (he said .com, but it's .org)
• Developmental Pediatrician that specializes in Autism
• Your state's Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) program
• Estate planning lawyer to discuss a Special Needs Trust

This episode also features our staple segments of "Ask the Dads", "Dad Jokes" and "Things You Should Check Out".

This episode of The DTALKS Podcast contains language that crosses well into R-rated territory. That language may not be safe for work, for your kids, and listener discretion is advised.
