You've read the autism books. You've read the ADHD books. And somehow, the advice keeps contradicting itself — because it was never written for your child. When autism and ADHD occur together in the same child, a combination increasingly known as AUDHD, standard parenting advice breaks down fast. Autism guidance tells you to reduce demands and lower stimulation. ADHD guidance tells you to add structure, novelty, and movement. Follow one and you fight the other. Follow neither and you are left guessing — again.

You may look capable on the outside while privately feeling exhausted, scattered, overstimulated, or behind.

It felt like everyone else was playing a game where I only knew half the rules.

Over the last 18 years Tyler Hudson, father to a profoundly autistic boy named Lyric, has watched autism advocacy evolve from awareness, to acceptance, to what now borders on glorification—while the reality of children like his are rarely represented in society. Those on the deep end of the spectrum are easy to ignore because they often have no voice of their own. In The Missing Lyrics, Tyler shares his journey through grief to acceptance, offers cultural critique, and uncomfortable truths.

Lina was a precocious toddler - charming, chatty, joyful. At the age of three, in the aftermath of her second MMR vaccine, first came a seizure, and then, to her parents’ horror, the loss of Lina’s ability to play, use language, and control her impulses. Over the next few years they continued to lose Lina. She communicated her acute discomfort by biting, screaming, hitting, laughing maniacally, and throwing violent tantrums.
