William Stillman, an adult with Asperger's Syndrome, presents his latest revolutionary and thought-provoking book, Empowered Autism Parenting, as a challenge to parents of children with autism to perceive their child's experience from a totally new and unique inside-out perspective by understanding the following: Children with autism are intelligent but may have unconventional methods of communication, behaviors that need to be understood and appreciated. Acknowledging your child's true intellect despite diagnoses to the contrary. Realizing your own autisms to see why we are all more alike than different. Why your child doesn't need traditional therapy or medication to treat autism. How the autism industry perpetuates parental fear and guilt. Understanding your non-verbal child's symbolic communications as legitimate ways of expression. Identifying your child's passionate interests if he appears to have none. Why the real autism epidemic has nothing to do with young children. How those autism ribbons and public awareness cards can send the wrong message. Understanding how your child best thinks, learns, and retains information. Ten ways to enrich the relationship with your child through a belief in competence.
