• PSYCHOLOGICAL STRUGGLES OF PARENTS RAISING CHILDREN WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER (2026) · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) · doi

  This research offers a broad investigation into the experiences of parents raising children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), focusing particularly on the complex interplay between the challenges associated with caring for an autistic child and the consequential impact on parental mental health. The findings emphasise the potential effectiveness of reinforcing both informal and formal support structures, advocating for awareness initiatives to eliminate societal misconceptions, and cultivating a sense of public understanding and acceptance. Moreover, the study highlights the significance of recognizing the diverse needs of parents and actively working toward establishing an inclusive and supportive societal setting, thereby playing a pivotal role in enhancing the overall well-being of families navigating the complexities of raising children with ASD. For practitioners, it is advised that parents undergo counselling and knowledge training before, during, and after their child is diagnosed with autism. This approach would bridge the information gap often experienced by parents, particularly in understanding autism. It would help them develop effective coping mechanisms, navigate the complexities of raising a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), strengthen their relationship with their child, understand the importance of early intervention, plan for the future, and reduce stress and anxiety.
