How can I toilet train my child? How do I get my child to sleep in their own bed and through the night? What do I do when my child repeatedly hits or bites themselves or others? Based on many years' experience of working with children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), Kate Wilde answers these questions in this practical guide to parenting ASD outside therapy sessions. Tackling all the key problem areas, including food avoidance, sleep, tantrums and toilet training, she provides tried-and-tested strategies that empower the child while also taking into account the needs of the caregiver. With exercises specifically designed to help caregivers reflect on how they respond to their child, Kate's unique approach helps transform the challenges of home life and create harmony. Catering to all age ranges and points on the spectrum, this book will be of immeasurable value to parents and caregivers of children with autism, other family members, as well as teachers and teaching assistants.
If you, like me, are the parent of a child with autism, Autistic Logistics is an absolute must-read. No matter what therapy you're doing with your child, this book will transform your entire home experience. Trying to toilet-train your child? Want to help your child move beyond meltdowns? Looking for your child to get dressed - and stay dressed? The step-by-step instructions in Autistic Logistics will help you make it happen - much more quickly than you'd expect! What's more, it will show you how to surmount day-to-day challenges in a way that goes with your child, not against your child. Kate Wilde, who has personally worked with my son, really gets it. She knows all of our challenges, and her fantastic book helps us to overcome them. -- Kristin Selby Gonzalez, President, Autism Hope Alliance (AHA) I have worked with Kate Wilde for over 15 years, and I can tell you, this woman knows what she's talking about. The most outlandish challenge you've had with your child...she's probably tackled it a hundred times. And that's why I'm so excited that she's written such an incredibly useful book for parents. Autistic Logistics is just outstanding! It's a treasure trove of extremely practical techniques to enable your child to triumph over the everyday obstacles that no one else is truly helping you to deal with. And it shows you how to do this in a way that is honoring and respectful of your child. As someone who has worked with thousands of families with children on the spectrum - and overcome autism myself - I can tell you that this book will be a game-changer for you and your family. -- Raun K. Kaufman, author of Autism Breakthrough and Director of Global Education, Autism Treatment Center of America(R)
