- 8How to help an autistic child handle playground name-callingWhen an autistic child is unfazed by name-calling like "stupid" until adults point it out as bullying, parents often struggle to know whether to intervene or let it go. Trying to force a child to stand up for themselves using scripts can create unnecessary distress when the child was originally unbothered by the interaction.

This daily mismatch prevents them from feeling engaged or inspired, turning the school day into an unchallenging hurdle.
- 4What to do when your elementary schooler refuses to do homeworkWhen a young child refuses homework and lies about it, parents get caught between school consequences like zeroes and trying to figure out the right discipline at home.
