5 out of 5 stars Very useful for parents and grandparents alike   November 2, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I am a father of a child with Autism on the lower spectrum. I think anyone in my position should be reminded of the challenges these little guys and girls face each day. Some have it harder than others and not all characteristics exist in every child with Autism but it certainly is helpful to know "why" your child is behaving a certain way or not responding appropriately to "time-outs" (for example) as your other children may.

My favorite parts of the book talk about the importance of building your child's self-esteem and teaching him to cope with the world including other children who may tease or ridicule him. Self-esteem will help anyone in life but particularly these children who are faced with more challenges than the rest of us.

I highly recommend this book as it will bring these excellent points into your consciousness the next time your child is struggling and you will deal with the situation more appropriately.



5 out of 5 stars A book every parent of an autistic child or child with Aspergers should own!   October 28, 2008
  2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This book is simple and to the point. I have a daughter with Aspergers and a son with Autism. This book put into words a lot of thoughts and feelings my children and I have. It gives lots of insight and positive views on relating to and raising children on the autistic spectrum. I love it so much, I've read it twice! What an uplifting and fulfilling book! A MUST READ!!!


5 out of 5 stars Ten Things Every Child With Autism Wishes You Knew   October 20, 2008
  2 out of 2 found this review helpful

As a grandparent to a child with autism, this was a book I wish EVERYONE would read. If your child is recently diagnosed with autism, you will find this book to be both informational and critical to understanding the child with autism. It is encouraging and uplifting. It offers a sense of hope and purpose to both the parent and child where there is often the feelings of confusion, misinformation and helplessness. There is an additional book by this same author about what TEACHERS ought to know about the child with autism and I plan to definitely read that one and share it as well. If you want to know more about autism, this is the book for you. It is an easy read and, as I mentioned, very informational.


5 out of 5 stars THE BEST BOOK ON AUTISM I HAVE READ IN A WHILE   October 18, 2008

THIS BOOK IS A MUST OWN FOR ANY PARENT OF AN AUTISTIC CHILD. IT OFFERS A LOT MORE THEN OTHER BOOKS I HAVE READ ON THE SUBJECT.


1 out of 5 stars Disgusting curebie claptrap!   October 3, 2008
  2 out of 7 found this review helpful

Typical curebie propaganda, and a deliberate, hurtful attempt to parody an article an actual autistic adult wrote entitled Ten Things An Autistic Adult Wishes You Knew. Point number one of Ten Things An Autistic Adult Wishes You Knew was that we are not "people with autism", but that our autism is an intrinsic part of who were are. Quite a polar opposite to what this author thinks tomorrow's autistic adults want you to know.

ObviouslyNotAutistic, as she should be called, is simply taking curebie words, shoving them into childrens' mouths, and asking you, the public, to cough up money for it. If the "knowledge and understanding that is increasing even as you read this" statement on her page was true, then books like this would be being cancelled by publishers, and banned as hate literature by countries with true social consciousness.

If you think I am exaggerating, bear these two points in mind. One, I am an autistic adult who is a poster child for what abusing an autistic child or teenager can do years down the track. You can see me describing the horrible conditions I had to grow up in anytime on YouTube, just search for an autistic adult speaking for himself (something curebies like this want to silence). Two, these curebie cowards cannot get the time of day in places like Australia, which happens to be where the foremost expert in autism in the world is based.

Ten years from now, the children ObviouslyNotAutistic is drowning out will rise up and speak for themselves. And what they have to say to her will not be pretty.
