About this title

Synopsis

Parents of children with Asperger's syndrome (AS) or high-functioning autism can often feel at a loss as to how to understand and communicate with their child and how to help their child feel valued and understood in the wider world. This illustrated companion provides all the concrete answers, explanations and advice necessary for parents to provide effective support for their child. It clarifies the type of assistance needed from outside the family, and where to find it, and includes suggestions on how to ensure the needs of other siblings are also met. Written from the insightful perspective of a child psychiatrist, this very practical and helpful book will provide comfort for parents and carers. The experience and expertise shared within will also be useful for any professionals working with children with AS or high-functioning autism and their families.
