When Your Child Has...Autism by Adele Jameson Tilton
What would you do if your child was diagnosed with Autism? Well, if you are like most parents, you would probably doubt the diagnosis, wonder about what actions to take, and question the future implications - cost, stress, safety, etc. The first question you would ask yourself is 'Where do I begin?' - and the answer is with "When Your Child Has...Autism". This book defines Autism, explains how it is a spectrum disorder, and what that means. It guides readers in how to find a specialist and how different health care professionals can help in different ways. "When Your Child Has...Autism" takes an in-depth look at the reality of the disability, its causes, and how to cope as a family with a child with special needs. It provides parents with information and resources on where to find help and ensure that their child gets the best education possible.
