Publisher's Synopsis
This book is a comprehensive how to guide for embracing your child's individuality and guiding them in the right direction.
Has your child received a diagnosis of any form of disability? Do you feel as though everything that was once safe has crumbled? As your child adjusts to life on the spectrum, they will inevitably board a roller coaster that they are too young to ride alone, which is why they need you now more than ever. You sense a tension between the parent you need to be right now and the parent you once imagined. You probably worry about the future of your child. Still, every one of your worries is relevant to the here and now. Raising a kid with one or more impairments can be difficult, particularly in the early stages following diagnosis. Establishing a visual bond with your child, getting them to focus on you, and showing your love are all things that individuals do naturally in different situations. However, everything is different in this case. Stress, fixation, and rigidity might make you feel powerless and make you wonder how you can best meet your kids' needs. Even though you don't want to accept the diagnosis, you most likely feel awful about it and are scared or bewildered. This book helps you understand the diagnosis, meet your child's social and emotional needs, set goals, help them learn self-control, and teach them to advocate for themselves. It also shows effective ways to collaborate with teachers and other school staff and offers advice on finding strengths based strategies that support development. Go through
