Just finished @hijamesguttman.bsky.social ‘s “Hi World, I’m Dad” & even though my tiny human isn’t neurodivergent (as far as we know) the challenges of being an “involved” father in our society have never been more eloquently stated.

This is the first parenting book where I feel seen.

A must read!

It’s here! “Hi World, I’m Dad” officially launches today in print, digital, and audiobook.

I narrated the audiobook myself, and it was one of the most emotional things I’ve ever done.

I recently discovered armored MMA. It is exactly what it sounds like except they also use medieval weapons. Insanity.

Lucas trusts me, as his father, to know what’s important. He might not always think crossing the street promptly is a big deal, but he understands that I do. And out of respect for me, he does it. #autism #autismappreciation

Two things Bobby Heenan told me that stuck with me.

1) During commercial breaks, Tony Schiavone would put his head down and pretend to be asleep.

2) Martin Mull was the only celebrity who he felt looked down on him for being involved in wrestling.

It’s about helping him find balance, even if he doesn’t know to ask for it. That’s what being his dad is all about—making the tough calls, trusting my instincts, and giving him the space to grow in ways I never imagined. #autism #autismappreciation 💙

For those who don’t know, I am the father of two kids. My son is a non-verbal 13 year old and my blog is about autism appreciation. I try to show the beautiful aspects of his personality because of, not despite, autism. 💙
