Does your autistic child struggle to leave the house? Is it extremely difficult to get them to stop doing one thing in order to start to do another?
Many autistic children find transitions hard - which means that their parents find them hard too. They refuse, they have meltdowns, they simply don't seem to have heard you at all. Life can feel like walking on eggshells. There are pitfalls where ever you look.
For transitions are everywhere. Each time we stop doing something and start doing something else. Each time a new person arrives or departs. Each time we go from home to school, or to visit a relative.
How can you help your autistic child with transitions? This course will help you gain a new understanding of why transitions are so hard, what makes it worse - and how to help.
This course is available to watch for 12 months after purchase.
This course is suitable for those with and without a diagnosis.
