Autism and Your Teen

"If you have a child with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), your journey together through the teenage years to adulthood is often rewarding but may also be complicated, confusing, and financially challenging. The scientifically validated guidance that Blythe Grossberg offers in this book can help you during this journey. Grossberg provides supportive advice for finding good medical and psychiatric care, helping your teen learn executive functioning and social skills to navigate middle and high school, and talking with your teen about sexual development and sexual activity. You will also find helpful resources for college and transition programs, as well as ideas for taking care of yourself throughout this stage of your parenting adventure."--Page 4 de la couverture.
