About this listen

It may not be an easy journey, but it’s definitely worth the fight—here’s how to help your child with autism survive and thrive in life while taking care of your mental health.

Are you stressed and overwhelmed by the struggles that come with raising a child with autism?

Are you worried about their future, wondering if they can ever become successful?

Has the thought of having a typical kid ever passed your mind because you’re so tired of handling their behavior?

Don’t feel guilty: your feelings are valid. Thousands of parents of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Asperger’s have the same sentiments.

In fact, raising a neurotypical child is also tough and a struggle every day. Caring for a kid with autism is a bigger challenge, and it can become worse if you don't get the right support and you're not able to provide for all your child's needs.

However, there’s also a silver lining: you get to raise the most honest people in the world. And just like any other kid, children with autism also show great potential—you just have to help them discover and nurture their talents so they can set and achieve their goals.

But before you begin, you need to understand why they behave the way they do.

Fortunately, this guide offers a simple framework with insights and strategies for you to follow and help your child thrive in life. Here’s just a fraction of what you will discover inside:

  • The 5-pillar approach to raising a child with special needs
  • The largely unknown reason behind the aggressive behavior in autism, and what you can do to prevent it
  • How to tell people about your child’s diagnosis–find out how to set boundaries to protect your kid
  • Five practical ways to identify talent in a child with autism–and what you can do to help them nurture it
  • Verbal, non-verbal, and visual strategies to overcome communication barriers when interacting with an ASD child
  • How to deal with their obsessive and repetitive behavior without being hard on them

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
