I so appreciate your nuanced discussion of this. So much more helpful than the memes of blue pumpkins are horrid!!! I love your focus on supporting your boys to communicate in ways that are comfortable for them...it centers them and accommodates them rather than others.
honestly those posts irk my soul. those memes are unhelpful. i get it, you don't like the blue pumpkin, but attempt to get to the root of why they would be popular for some and maybe that would decrease their use. don't poke at parents. that is unproductive and if you are trying to help the children as so many claim, you cannot do so without helping their parents.
This is beautifully and compassionately written. Thank you.
