Background: Families dealing with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) children try to adapt with different strategies. Objectives: To assess the resilience of parents dealing with children having ASD and its associated factors (2) To explore the perspective and strategies of families dealing with children having ASD Methodology: This was a mixed-methods study done over a period of 3 months among parents having children diagnosed with ASD; undergoing institutional therapy for more than 6 months in duration. Data collection was done using the PREQ questionnaire and Key informant interviews (KII). Informed consent was taken prior to each interview and audio recordings. Relevant tests of significance and deductive analysis followed. Results: There was an equal divide observed between the low (50%) and high resilience (50%) groups. Binary logistic regression showed that the upper socio-economic class showed higher odds of better resilience (OR 4.038, 95% CI 2.857-4.894) as compared to the lower socio-economic class, and those with higher levels of education showed better resilience (OR 9.903, 95% CI 2.502-3.483) than the lesser educated. KII explored different perspectives on personal experiences, concerns, challenges, attitudes, etc. and it was observed that although opinions differed, eventually ways of self-resilience were taught, respectively. Conclusion: Education and socio-economic backgrounds played a role in mending the resilience and adaptive narratives of children with ASD varies from individual to individual.
