#Sikh & #Muslim #mothers are trying to break the #shame & #stigma surrounding #autism in their community.

They have described feeling #SociallyExcluded & say husbands & partners also need to take up caring duties.

Habiba, whose son is #autistic, said: "It's really #isolating & stressful as there is often #gaslighting & #UnsolicitedAdvice which can lead to feeling very lonely."

3 #SouthAsian charities also say #ignorance & #myths need to be tackled.

your internet connection is really really bad, and you still want to see what's happening on the fedi, but your browser simply won't load mastodon, misskey, friendica, pleroma etc?

you may try kbin instead > this fedi platform is ultra lightweight #kbin #fediverse

Btw, I don't know whether this weekend's newbies and/or returnees know about this, but you can subscribe to hashtags here as if they are an account. Quite the feed refresher!

I wouldn't buy one of those foldable phones if you gave me the money to do it. Wait a few generations of the tech before you hop on board. That's my advice. Eventually they'll all be foldable, or they won't because the tech is crap and it took a few years to work that out. Remember plasma TVs? Wonder why they're not around anymore? Because the tech sucked. #UnsolicitedAdvice
