I couldn't wear Goodnites or adult diapers so I used the baby ones as well as pull ups. Anyway, ever since then, they have taken me to see therapists, always asking why I like diapers, and I think somewhere they think I'm gonna be one of those people who are not there. So, I saw this link here yesterday about Tykables and the owner hits some strong points that I wish my parents to see. The thing is, im a little and this link basically gives that away. I just don't think I'm ready for them to know yet, but should I send them the link so they can see it from a different perspective?
Here's the link if you want to read it.

I read the article and I like it. It makes alot of excellent points.
Unfortunately I dont have much experience with positive famely interactions. The one conflict I can probably empathize with is the need for independence. This is normal for all teenagers. For me the line was hard fought but in the end my parents and I came to the understanding that I was going to be independent and if I wanted to share something with them, I would. Otherwise they respected my space because the fighting was not heathy or constructive for any of us.
Assuming however that you come form a caring famely or that you truly wish to talk to your parents about this topic. This link provides an excellent insight into a part of your life that you are not sure your parents understand.
Yes, you probably will have to deal with the little conversation and if your parents have insisted that you see therapists it is also likely that they will insist on autism screenings. They do this because they care and want to do everything they can to make sure you are okay.
I dont talk to my parents much but every famely is different personally I feal that if I did have a closer connection with my famely this might fall under the heading of sex even if it did not actually involve sex. My rules about sex topics are simple: I acknowledge that you have sex and you are free to acknowledge that I have sex. That said I dont want to hear about my parents sex life and in turn I dont want to talk about it with them.
In short if it meens enought to you to realy have this conversation then this is a great opening.
If your parents are maybe not so supportive of you, well it sounds like you already have a therapist. Try to take advantage of this and maybe have this conversation with your therapist first.
