Autism: The Big Book Set of Help!: Book Three: ABA and the Alternatives
Welcome to Book Three in "Autism: The Big Book Set of Help!" series.
This instalment covers arguably the most sensitive and difficult conversations that Autistics and their loved ones are likely to have - that of therapeutic approaches and controversial behavioural modification programs.
Some people are unaware that the autistic community consider ABA to be abusive; in this book, you'll find out why.
Packed full of information about the techniques used, the research about therapies for Autism, the proof behind what does and doesn't work, and why.
Most parents will ask "If not ABA, then what?"
This book helps answer that question with options and a direction to take to help your child grow into an amazing Autistic adult.
If you know or love an Autistic person, or if you are an amazing Autistic yourself, then the best way to offer support is to try to understand the world through our eyes.
That's what the "Autism: Big Book Set of Help!" is here for.
Providing understanding shared from inside a neurodivergent brain.
