Download and read online ebook Turn Autism Around write by Mary Lynch Barbera, Ph.D.. This book was released on 2022-03-29. Turn Autism Around available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Help remediate—and in some cases eliminate—autism and other developmental delays in young children, even in as little as 15 minutes a day with this toolkit of behavioral practices that can be taught at home. Developmental delays and signs of autism usually show up before 18 months of age, yet children are often not diagnosed until they are 4 or 5 years old. In Turn Autism Around, Dr. Mary Barbera explains why parents can't afford to worry and wait in long lines for evaluations and treatment while not knowing how to help their children. She empowers parents, caregivers, and early intervention professionals to regain hope and take back control with simple strategies to dramatically improve outcomes for their children. Dr. Barbera has created a new approach to teaching kids with developmental delays that uses the science of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) married with a positive, child-friendly methodology that any parent can use—whether or not their child has delays—to learn to teach communication skills, socialization strategies, as well as tackle sleep, eating, potty training, and behavior challenges in a positive, effective, and lasting way. Turn Autism Around is the first book of its kind that calls attention to an important fact: parents can make a tremendous impact on their child's development through behavioral practices taught at home, even in as little as 15 minutes a day. Her program shows these autism and developmental delays can be remediated, and in some cases, delays can be caught up altogether, if parents intervene while the child is young. This book is for parents of young children aged one-to-five years who are passionate about helping their child as well as learning how they can change the trajectory of their child's and family's life.

Download and read online ebook You Are My Son write by Patricia DeGeyter. This book was released on 2013-08. You Are My Son available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. My story is based on my experience in raising an autistic child and to also help raise autism awareness that these special children can become such a wonderful addition to our society. As autism has become such an epidemic these days, I feel my story may benefit any parent or parents who may feel so lost, confused, having chronic unhappiness, desperation, feeling guilty and so saddened by the autism diagnosis for their special child. Us parents must devote most of our time to accomplish this significant progress. Hopefully, you will find genuine happiness of what you and your child can and will have accomplished. My story will hopefully be very helpful to you and change your entire concept that autistic children can become successful, independent and productive in life, no matter what negativity is ever told to you.
