Children With Autism: What Does An Autistic Child Need?: What Not To Do With An Autistic Child (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798748763929)

From the moment you heard the diagnosis, you knew life would be challenging for your child. So when you ask him to do something and it's not done, you let it go. Does he really need you to point out his limitations?Or maybe you fear that what you'd like him to do, or not do, is impossible for him to achieve.
But here's the truth: If you feel that your son or daughter doesn't deserve discipline, it's like telling your child, "I don't believe you can learn." And if you don't believe it, how will your child?
When the devastating diagnosis is made, millions of questions and concerns will flood parents brains. This book will answer panicked parents questions in clear and complete terms. Taking an in-depth look at the reality of the disability, its causes, and how to cope as a family, this professional yet personal primer will help parents get through those first oh-so-tough times after the diagnosis.
