Untangling Autism

If you are a parent who has ever felt confused or just unsure on your journey to help your autistic child gain success, then this book is for you.

Families generally have more questions than answers.
So, what do you do?

Everyone goes to Google!!!

Well . . . when you become a friend of Google to search for autism solutions, you uncover a lot of what I call “Swiss Cheese” information . . . bits and pieces. . . filled with a lot of holes and all “tangled up” with not enough details to help you know exactly what to do.

Why should you read “Untangling Autism”?

It's full of simple but critical "secrets" that will
enhance life opportunities for your autistic child
and your family . . .

Untangling Autism is not an encyclopedia of everything about autism. Instead, it addresses some often confusing “CORE” topics that have repeatedly surfaced during more than 40 years that Linda Hodgdon has been consulting with parents and educators of autistic children.

If you are fairly new on your autism journey, “Untangling Autism” will expand your knowledge and help you gain confidence.

If you are "an old pro" and have extensive experience with autism it’s good to validate what you already know. And it’s great to refresh and remember important things you may have forgotten. Plus, there will be new, updated information in this book.

(And don't forget . . . a lot has changed in the last few years about how we view autism and what neurodiversity means for your child.)

Parents will benefit . . .

• by discovering the go-kart analogy . . . to improve your relationship with your child.
• as you learn an important lesson from a 2000 pound horse . . . so you’ll master behavior situations more effectively.
• when you develop the “Columbo Strategy” . . . so you can use it to find solutions you need (parents are usually the BEST at this!).

Untangling Autism will help you help your autistic child take advantage of his/her life opportunities with success.

And one more thing. . .

This book will guide more in-depth learning about autism and neurodiversity. It contains a link I have assembled just for you, to a special list with resources and references mentioned in the book.

Untangling Autism also includes access to a Discussion Guide, designed to lead thoughtful conversation about topics from the book. This will help you use Untangling Autism as a tool for leading a parent training, parent discussion or reading group.
