Parents of children with an ASD diagnosis report experiencing increased stress levels compared to other parents, which can have negative implications for both parent and child. A qualitative research method was used, six parents of children with ASD were interviewed about the experience of getting their child diagnosed. Semi-structured interviews were employed to collect the parental narratives, these were analysed through thematic analysis.Issued: 2016
