Help your child hone her skills to achieve her goals, boost her self-esteem, and show her the power of unconditional love.
There are so many myths surrounding Autism… including the myth that all Autistic people find it hard to make eye contact, establish friendships, or excel at subjects requiring linguistic skills.
If you have an Autistic daughter, then your own experience has already served to bust a myriad of misconceptions.
You know, for instance, that Autistic girls can be chatty, have a big group of friends, and have fascinating special interests ranging from animals to arts and the media.
For too many years, Autism in children has been viewed from a male-centered lens. Boys are still diagnosed at a rate of 4:1 compared to girls, largely because the tools used for diagnosis and screening are mainly based on data obtained from boys.
Many girls are misdiagnosed with everything from BPD to multiple personality disorder—which creates great confusion for families and stops girls from receiving the right therapies early on.
A failure to diagnose Autistic girls can also result in forced “masking,”—which occurs when girls are forced to hide who they are just to fit in.
Too many Autistic females don’t feel that it is okay to be themselves until they are in their 30s and 40s. And having to hide who you are takes a great toll on their self-esteem and happiness.
This book, written by an Autistic teacher and mom, gives parents all the resources they need to spot the signs of Autism in girls so they can opt for diagnosis if they wish and make the best decisions regarding treatments.
It aims to help the world adapt to the child instead of the other way around. It is a celebration of the unique way that Autistic girls see and process life and the creative ways they communicate and express themselves.
In this book, you will discover:
- Exactly what Autism is, how it affects skills like language and learning, and how it can look significantly different in girls than in boys
- The pros and cons of early diagnosis—plus concurrent conditions that many Autistic girls face
- The reason Autistic girls have sensory issues and all the powerful techniques you can use to reduce sensory overwhelm—including tips to boost vagal tone
- Supporting your child’s learning process—how to make learning fun and why supporting special interests is vital for her self-esteem and enjoyment
- How Autism affects communication and how you can create a language-rich environment, plus proven speech therapy activities you can try at home
- Specialized coping strategies, calming tools, and exercises to boost your daughter’s emotional well-being
- How to expand your daughter’s opportunities to make friends—while prioritizing her specific wants and needs (not everybody needs a large friendship group to feel connected)
- How to design Autistic-friendly sensory spaces in your home
- Why an accepting mindset is the most powerful tool against stigma and biases
- A bonus chapter on top professionals and current treatments that can support learning, sensory needs, and social skills
And much more.
Even if you already have a qualified and wonderful team, this book will empower you as a parent, highlighting the misconceptions to watch out for and presenting you with the latest research on approaches that work.
