Facilitating Interaction: Autism for Parents 21 (Q1 2024)

Autism for Parents is a series of conversations on aspects of bringing up an autistic child based on attachment parenting, with Guy Shahar and child development specialist, Andrew Shahan. In this episode, Guy and Andrew turn their attention to how to help empower autistic children to initiate communication and interaction, rather than unconsciously training them to simply respond to external stimulus (as is very common).
