Summary

In Parenting a Child with Autism, here is just a fraction of what you will discover:

  • The spectrum of ASD signs and symptoms, plus the most common ASD misconceptions
  • What life is really like through the eyes of your autistic child
  • How an ASD diagnosis is made, the specialists you may meet, and the support that is available
  • The fascinating advancements in understanding autism and the brain—the longest nerve in your body may become your new best friend
  • How just 5 minutes a day can make all the difference
  • Essential items that can help ASD children avoid meltdowns—fidgets and poppers really can help
  • 6 types of ASD treatments and therapies to help reduce symptoms and allow children to go about their daily lives
  • How ADHD affects children with ASD, and how anxiety affects a child with ASD
  • 20 games and activities you can do at home to start helping your child’s social skills without spending a dollar
  • How to make an emotional thermometer and why this is going to help the entire family
  • A free social interactions checklist to understand where your child needs a little extra help and support
  • And much more

You don’t need to be a psychologist or have special training. What you need to do is act fast, because one of the most consistent pieces of advice you will hear from any ASD expert is that early intervention is always best.

Every parent goes through life doubting their skills. When you are parenting an ASD child, these doubts can have a significant impact on their development. But all of that can change—starting today!

Good reference book

The day my 7-year-old was told he had high functioning autism spectrum condition, I ordered this book. The content in this book was understandable, fascinating, and helpful to me. The book's personal anecdotes from persons with autism and parents of autistic children helped to illustrate its message and highlight how wide the spectrum is and how everyone's experiences and coping techniques vary. I could definitely identify to a number of the scenarios and issues in the book.

Such clarity and honesty and the methods are what has proven effective for us over the last 12 years of trial and error. I would strongly advise making this the first book you pick up if someone in your family has received a diagnosis.

An inspirational audio on autism.

BUY THIS BOOK IF YOU ARE! A book on this topic that is well-informed, relatable, current, and quietly impassioned, and that is skillfully written with humor and sincerity. I highly suggest it to parents, family members, and most importantly to any professionals who in any way interact with persons on the autistic spectrum. It is a really inspirational recording.
