Synopsis

Mari Nosal demonstrates her knowledge as a parent and education professional by sharing ways that others can effectively support and interact with individuals with autism and their families. Mari wrote this book with the intent of providing an informative venue for parents, educators, and kids with autism. Mari's perception is that all of the latter individuals mentioned are involved in bringing up a child on the autism spectrum. Thus her Ten Commandments series is separated into three parts to address all individuals who are part of the child's support team. This book was developed to be informative in a design that can afford busy parents, educators, and society at large to access the information they need in a timely fashion. Mari has added other special needs related personal poetry, and musings in this book to further inspire others to know they do not walk in the dark. , possessing the collaborative stance that I do: I have decided to provide a voice for parents & children on the autism spectrum in my book. This book is the product of a dream. A dream that I can make a small dent in the development of a more diversified world through providing parents and children with a voice and presence in my book for others to identify and learn from. In this book, reader will find quotes and photos from families who live with autism from several different countries and varied diagnosis on the spectrum. My intent in presenting families from different nations is to hopefully emphasize the fact that autism is prevalent all over the world and not just in ones back yard. I hope this addition will also exemplify the fact that autism knows no borders, race, creed, gender or income boundaries. The challenges with autism that families face is the same all over the world, the parents, children and society struggle in a similar fashion with the same issues and emotions. Just imagine what the world would be like if collaboration and unity could occur internationally. By reading about actual families who generously shared personal quotes and photos in this publication, professionals and society at large can hopefully gain a semblance of understanding of what life is like for actual families who live with autism. What better way to learn about families living with autism then by hearing parents and children’s opinions regarding living with autism through their own eyes? My intent is to help those who walk the path I have walked both as a parent and professional and light their path to make their load slightly lighter. Yes, their is ALWAYS a light at the end of the tunnel if you can just muster up the energy to reach it.
