Background: Much research exists on the mental health and well-being of parents of autistic children; however, parents who are themselves autistic have received little attention in the literature. We aimed to compare parenting stress and family outcomes in mothers who do, and do not, identify as being autistic. Methods: We matched 20 mothers who identified as being autistic to 20 mothers who do not identify as being autistic on variables associated with parental well-being: child externalizing behaviors, score on the Social Communication Questionnaire, child adaptive functioning, family income, and child and maternal age. All mothers had at least one autistic child. Outcome variables were family outcomes (Family Outcome Survey-Revised) and parenting stress (Parent Stress Index 4-Short Form). Paired t-tests were used to compare scores between the two samples. Results: There were no statistical differences in achievement of family outcomes between the autistic and nonautistic mothers. The small effect size on Family Outcome 4 may suggest that autistic mothers develop stronger support networks, but as a statistical comparison for this item nonsignificant, this should be interpreted with caution. Autistic and nonautistic mothers reported equally high levels of parenting stress. Conclusions: Further research with larger samples is required to explore this under-researched area. Such research would be of value to understand any interaction between parental and child autism characteristics, well-being, and parenting. This could then inform development of supports, which can be tailored for each child's family.
