Written for busy foster carers and adoptive parents, this book
provides a concise introduction to Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD),
and how to support a child with a diagnosis. It emphasises the
common strengths children with ASD have, as well as offering
strategies for any behavioural issues that are likely to arise,
highlighting how these can be exacerbated by the care system and
adoption process. The first part of the book looks at the different
aspects of autism and the challenges it can pose for children and
parents, providing strategies for managing difficulties at home and
at school, using social stories, and reducing sensory input in a
child's environment. The second part looks at issues that arise for
fostered or adopted children, including placement transitions,
contact, and explaining the past. It concludes with helping parents
to think about self-care.
