Puberty and Autism
Puberty and Autism
A supportive roadmap to help parents navigate the physical, emotional, and social changes of puberty in autistic youth.
What happens to your child’s body — and how to talk with them about it.
Puberty is challenging for any child.
But when you’re parenting a child on the autism spectrum, that transition can feel confusing, scary, and downright overwhelming — for both of you.
Your child’s body is changing.
Their emotions are shifting.
And you’re expected to guide them through something that no one ever prepared you for.
That’s exactly why this book exists.
Written by Alyssa Morgan — autism mom of five, three on the spectrum — this guide takes the fear out of puberty and replaces it with calm, clarity, and connection.

MEET The AUTHOR
Hey, my name is Alyssa and I’m a mom. I think back to the moment I found out my youngest son was diagnosed with autism. He made the third child out of my four boys and 1 girl given that diagnosis.
The weight of more therapy, new providers, and more IEP meetings washed over me. It was almost too much. I couldn’t see how I would be able to manage 5 children and be an effective mom.
I think now about where I was and how I would’ve given anything to have someone share the ins and outs of the Autism journey with me. Especially because not every child presents the same or with the same severity.
Well, now you have me! I’ve decided to create a place for parents ,like us, to share the ins and outs of Autism that no one really talks about.
We are now Autism Ally Partners!
As we partner together my hope is you find, as I did, that there are parents just like you, who share the same goal. The best for your children and the next generation without compromise.
