auldhouse | 3 andere besprekingen | Sep 30, 2021 | imagine ... such education being available to all girls with aspergers/autism
read it, absorbed it and then re-read bits again.
I found it useful. It is dense with practical detail and it comes from a place that is trying to help girls reach their full potential. It also lists the various theories of why autism is under diagnosed in females, without coming to any conclusions, since the research itself is inconclusive.
It has a nice introduction from Lianne HW. And also a revealing chapter at the end of the book detailing parent/teacher conferences.
However, bad as this exchange is, I note that it doesn't include the child. Not all parents are advocating for their children. Some may be using the school system to punish their child for making their life difficult.
Before I started reading these books, I had no understanding of the depth of relational aggression a child with aspergers could encounter. And sometimes it starts with the relatives. I would question even in this book the assumption that female children are taken under the wing of a mother hen. That is a very benign view and children behave very differently out of the sight of their parents/teachers when they are not winning brownie points.
I would be very interested in reading a further edition that details the work/problems that mixed groups entail after 18.… (meer)

ThePinesLibrary | 3 andere besprekingen | Apr 14, 2014 | Girls With Special Needs: It has been tough to identify girls with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) because their symptoms are so different from boys’, but for the millions of pre-teen and teen girls who feel “different,” understanding how to deal with autism and Asperger’s can be a lonely, unexplored effort.
In Girls Growing Up on the Autism Spectrum: What Parents and Professionals Should Know About the Pre-Teen and Teenage Years Shana Nichols, Gina Marie Moravcik, and Samara Pulver Tetenbaum provide solid, specific advice on teen issues—social life, changing bodies, friendships, diet and nutrition, self-reliance, anxiety, and more. This is an excellent beginning, with resources listed (books, articles, Web sites, blogs) in every chapter and short case studies that break up the text throughout. The authors tackle the bigger issues of socialization and friendships, plus the nitty-gritty of raising an adolescent girl—periods, ob-gyn exams, weight, privacy, and hygiene.
Girls Growing Up is long and detailed but very easy to reference. “Tips for Talking” in each chapter help parents remember the main points of each section. As autism covers a wide spectrum, this book offers a wide variety of answers to a very complex diagnosis. by Linda Beck… (meer)
