Father Tattoos Alphabet for Son's Communication
News summary

Dan Harris, a father from Peterborough, UK, has tattooed the English alphabet on his arm to facilitate communication with his 10-year-old son Joshie, who is non-verbal due to autism. The tattoo serves as a backup communication method for Joshie, who primarily uses an iPad as a 'talker' to express his needs through pictures and words. Dan was motivated by concerns that the iPad could malfunction or run out of battery, leaving Joshie unable to communicate his desires. The tattoo allows Joshie to spell out his thoughts, bridging the gap when technology fails. Harris, who founded the charity Neurodiversity in Business, advocates for greater awareness and support for non-speaking autistic children, feeling privileged to work alongside his son in this mission. The heartwarming story highlights the lengths a parent will go to ensure their child's voice is always heard.
