Introduction: From the DSM V, the new nomenclature used for the diagnosis of autism becomes Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), referring to different disorders of child development. The ASD demands broader discussion in which parents should be listened to. Objectives: Understand the child's perception of parents in writing about their autistic children. Methods: This is a literature review, qualitative, content analysis, observational, transversal, descriptive. Nine reading sheets from selected books, completed by Occupational Therapists, were analysed. The books were selected based on inclusion criteria: must be written by parents about their autistic children in the last five years. Books that could not be acquired were excluded. Results point to the struggle of parents getting their children diagnosed with autism and this diagnosis was late compared to the possibility of an early intervention. Parents questions the delay of pediatricians on referral to specialized clinicians. Facing the treatments parents criticize the orthodox psychoanalysis and the rigor of the ABA method - they claim that the method had positive effects on the acquisition of abilities, but that this method should be more humanized. Parents advocate a place and right of their children in a society less prejudiced and less charged on social attitudes. It is concluded from the analysis of the reading cards that it is possible to perceive the parents' perception in the writing about the autistic children and that they should listen, and their knowledge is valued, reflecting the therapists on their future practices.
