People need to get off public platforms whenever they come even close to discussing hardships about their kids.
Children can read. They feel. They internalize. Everything in their world is about them.
It doesn't matter if someone is autistic or allistic, ND or NT, it is not okay for an open forum on kids.
Children will not feel safe in this world as long as the adults are talking about them as a burden.
And that means recognizing Public versus Private forums.
Recognizing the impact this can have on children.
And helping each other do better.
It is our responsibility, collectively, as adults, to provide that for them.
