Description:

Parents of children with autism will admit that it is at once one of the most problematic and yet unusual condition a family can face. Many times the extremes of behaviour, which children with autism display are due to difficulties of sensory perception and can be treated. This book was written by the parent of such a child, - a parent whose search for answers led him to become qualified in psychology and child development. This book taps into the experience and knowledge, which has been gained through heartache and hard work. It offers a new rationale of treatment for children with autism and gives hope to parents that they do not have to accept that they can do nothing about their child's condition. The book gives clear explanations of and insights into the many complex difficulties, which children and families face; - but it also goes further than this in offering solutions. A ‘must read’ for any parent whose child suffers from autism.
