As people grow older, especially parents, they begin to think about the future, and how their children will be provided for after they’re gone.
For parents of children without developmental disabilities, this is easier, as those children can typically provide for themselves.

However, when you have a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder, the issue becomes much knottier.
Not only do you have to financially provide for that child after you’re gone, you must ensure they’ll be well taken care of and that your death does not compromise the child in any way other than the obvious emotional impact losing you will have.
Planning for the future when you have a child with autism can be difficult, but if you take a forthright approach, you will pave the way toward a successful life for your child with autism, even if you are no longer around to take care of them.
Estate Planning?
What exactly is estate planning?
Typically parents leave much of their estate to their children, though you may also decide to leave parts of your estate to friends, nieces and nephews, siblings or charitable organizations.
Estate planning is a fairly normal part of middle age, and if you’re looking for a quick guide to what goes into it, you can look here. However, for parents who have children with autism, estate planning becomes more complicated.

Challenges of Preparing For Your Children’s Future
There are a number of challenges when it comes to estate planning, even if you don’t have a special needs child.
For one thing, many people do not enjoy facing mortality; it’s just human to avoid considering our deaths too closely.
Unfortunately, estate planning requires you to be very honest about your life and death.

Unfortunately, estate planning requires you to be very honest about your life and death.
Not only that, estate planning brings many challenges in the form of figuring what your assets are, dividing assets between siblings in a way that will feel fair to all, and drafting the often-lengthy documentation needed to ensure those assets go where you want them to.
If you are still in the process of raising a child with autism, it can feel like a lot to tackle these challenges while in the midst of that.

Why Plan Specifically for Children with Autism?
First of all, children with autism are typically developmentally delayed for life, which means they will most likely never be able to accomplish the things their peers do, like earning an income to support themselves.
That means they usually need to be cared for after you’re gone.
