About the author "I am a visual thinker, so I am seeing what I am thinking. It was a hell of a job to put into words everything that comes so natural to me at work. I am fully aware of the restraints involved in a translation from everyday practice into words." Colette de Bruin-Wanrooy works as a trainer and SEN coordinator in families with children with autism and/or an intellectual impairment. She is the mother of five autistic foster children and was raised by - among others - a father with Asperger disorder. Readers are drawn into this book by the author's practical way of working, which can of course be translated to their own situations.

Die entscheidenden 5," ein Buch aus der Praxis fur Eltern und Betreuer. Ein autistisches Kind aufziehen? Wie macht man das? Darum geht es hier. Das Buch wurde aufgrund der Erfahrung geschrieben, dass ein autistisches Kind ein erhohtes Bedurfnis an Klarheit und Vorhersehbarkeit hat. Das Kind bittet zu uns sozusagen: Beantworte mir die funf W-Fragen," oder mit anderen Worten: WAS ist meine Aufgabe, WIE fuhre ich sie aus, WO findet sie statt, WANN muss ich sie erledigen und WER ist daran beteiligt?." Schon wahrend des Lesens beginnt der Leser intuitiv diese neue Art des Umgangs einzusetzen, weil ihm die Auswirkungen der autistischen Storung fur das Kind immer deutlicher werden. Beim Leser entsteht eine neue Einsicht, die die Autorin das Aufsetzen der Auti-Brille" nennt. Erst nachdem man die Auti-Brille aufgesetzt hat, beginnt man zu verstehen, wie das Kind denkt. Aus diesem Verstandnis heraus kann man dann als Eltern oder Betreuer Erziehung und Anleitung des Kindes aufbauen.
