About this listen
You already know that parenting a child with ASD comes with unique challenges... Now it's time to discover how you can make the journey easier.
Behind every ASD diagnosis, there’s a child with an individual set of needs… and, above all else, an individual personality.
Whether you suspect that your child may have ASD or you already have a diagnosis, it doesn’t change who they are. But it does mean that they will need extra support in order to feel safe and happy in the world.
It’s a beautiful idea, isn’t it?
Try giving a little bit of extra support when your child can smell a new shampoo before you take the lid off and is already having a meltdown… Or when they’re throwing their plate across the room because there’s a lump in their applesauce…
As a parent, you are pushed to the brink daily… and it’s hard to rise above the stress caused by a meltdown.
But what does that new shampoo mean to them? Why did a pea-sized lump cause such a reaction?
It feels personal, but it isn’t. And science can help us appreciate this.
Understanding autism isn’t just about spotting the signs and symptoms. It’s about delving into the brain to understand what’s really going on for your child.
This is the key to navigating those challenges that often seem impossible.
In The Parent’s Guide to Raising a Child With Autism, here’s just a fraction of what you will discover:
- How ASD labels used to help us but now only highlight the diagnosis – without exploring the meaning of a SPECTRUM
- What the 21st century is telling us about ASD – one chapter will change your whole way of thinking!
- The biggest danger for ASD children if wandering and bolting is a habit – and how you can help them avoid it
- Exactly what’s involved in an ASD diagnosis, the professional help available, and where to start when you’re looking at waiting over 12 months for this help
- Why routine is necessary for your child – and how to cope with a break in those routines
- What an ASD meltdown is really telling you
- How to take the stress out of health and hygiene routines (so you aren’t left pulling your hair out)
- How paper and pens are all you need in order to teach your child about emotions
- The #1 thing you should never say to your ASD child in the hope of getting them to speak
- 18 games to boost your child’s social skills… and even more activities to encourage positive interactions
- 9 strategies for parents to prevent autism burnout – you can have your own life and be the parent of an autistic child!
Perhaps you feel like you have no energy left to do anything more than what you’re doing. Rest assured that you aren’t alone… and you don’t have anything to feel guilty about. Parenting a child with ASD is hard work…
But knowing that you want the best for them, it’s time to give yourself a break. Put your expectations aside, give yourself time to learn, and empower yourself so that you can give your child the best of you… no matter what challenges the day brings.
