Safe Adults to Talk to About My Feelings: Sometimes I might have questions about myself or others.

I can talk to someone I trust, like a safe adult.
Safe adults care about me and want to keep me safe.
When I have questions about myself or my body, I can talk to: My parents, teachers, school social workers, and doctors.
These safe adults will listen to my questions and provide me with help.
If I need to ask them a question about myself or others, I should tell the safe adult, "I have a private question."
They will understand that this question should not be: In front of the class or people who are not safe adults.

Social stories use simple langauge and clear visuals to walk your autistic child through situations like new routines, transitions, or social interactions. Reading them together ahead of time helps reduce anxiety, builds understanding, and makes unfamiliar moments feel more predictable and manageable.
