Can anyone reccommend a good discussion forum for parents of autistic children? (functioning, people)

[Fifty Seven]

I've tried googling and all the forums I've found either have no participation or are geared for mothers only or are not really forums at all, but rather just trying to sell something. I'm looking for a forum that is fairly active and geared towards all parents, not just mothers. A place where people share and discuss their experiences raising autistic children and different methods they use for helping their children grow and develop. Thanks.

babycenter's autism boards are good.

Note there is also a board for high functioning children, a worried about autism board and a private low-functioning autism board on bbc.

Try my autism team. It’s not exactly a forum but similar. I also find Facebook to be good for groups.

As mentioned above, Facebook has many groups. I also joined a local meetup group years ago, it was mostly moms, but there were some dads involved. It definitely helps to have support of others in a similar situation.
