As parents of an autistic daughter, we eventually realized the profound importance of helping our daughter, Gabbi, develop emotional awareness. For many years, all three of us were entrenched in what we now refer to as the "Red Zone," a space dominated by negative emotions. Gabbi, being a minimal sp...
