A wonderful guide

I highly recommend this book for anyone who has a loved one with autism, whether it's your own child or not. It doesn't pull punches and gives a very realistic account about what it's like to parent a child with autism. It's an incredibly resource for those who have been trying to figure out what a family member is going through or for the parent themself who has a child with autism and aren't sure what to expect in the long run. It gives lots of help of things you can do like games, etc and I just can't stress enough how in depth it goes.

A Helpful Resource If You Have An Autistic Child

As the parent of a nearly three-year-old with autism, I found the guidance in this autism parenting handbook invaluable. The author clearly grasps the challenges of raising a child with autism, acknowledging the stress it can involve. Her book begins by affirming the intelligence of children with autism and offers understanding and practical advice for handling transitions and managing emotions. It also includes helpful tips for potty training, which I plan to start with my son after his birthday. Overall, this book is an excellent resource for parents of autistic children.

Great tips!

Being the parent of an autistic child can be really challenging. It's hard to communicate, and it's especially hard to connect because it's not always easy to understand what they think and how they feel. I'm glad that there's a book like this that really helps with these difficult areas. It's full of good and useful tips that would really helps parents with taking better care and connecting with their kids with autism.
