Clear and practical information Oct 17, 2009
Researching Autism spectrum disorders can be very overwhelming. The information on medical websites and text books is often lengthy and full of jargon...not to mention the fact that after they name all the things your child has difficulty with, there's no mention of things you can do to help!
"Maintaining Your Sanity with a Sensory Dysfunctional Child and other Spectrum Disorders" by Jennifer Dehmlow is full of ANSWERS. Written in the first person by a mom of two children with similar but different diagnosis, it's filled with REAL examples of behaviors and activities you can do with your kids to help them improve. Some are even fun games you can play on a rainy day to help with sensory integration and fine motor skills.
Every child is unique when it comes to Autism Spectrum Disorders...that's what makes it so confusing! The good news is that the exercises and suggestions in this book are beneficial to all children...no matter what their diagnosis is.
The tone of the book is cautiously optimistic; refreshingly uplifting when you feel like you don't know what to do. It breaks things down into manageable bite-sized chunks with check lists, charts and suggestions to keep things on a schedule.
This book id full of love and hope; the two things these children need the most.
Thanks for sharing your experiences Jennifer, now other parents know they're not alone.
