The Autistic Spectrum Disorder affects development on the socio-communicative and behavioral domains, impacting families in different ways. Considering the importance of fraternal relations in the development process, this study deals with the experience of four teenagers, siblings of autistic individuals, towards the return of a research's results. Through a conversation circle, the data were analyzed and discussed based on the bioecological model. The teenagers showed interest in the responses of their peers, reported feeling represented with the results of the research and made suggestions to other families. Thereby, we expect to cooperate with the elaboration of actions and studies on the theme.
