HFA and fatherhood

Headswim · 22/09/2019 12:22

Anybody with any experience of this? I am trying to figure out if a man with High Functioning Autism (eg my partner) - and chronic anxiety - could ever enjoy fatherhood and also fundamentally be able to meet a child's needs?

I am thinking more emotional and practical needs. Financial isn't the issue that concerns me as we are sorted in that way.
