Description

I think I even have something on anxiety so we can link those in the show notes just for helpful information for people. While all of our stories are different, there are a lot of common elements in how a parent processes this difference. Teachers, parents and even siblings of children diagnosed with ASD should read this book and take to heart the lessons that the author learned.

Ebooks fulfilled through Glose cannot be printed, downloaded as PDF, or read in other digital readers (like Kindle or Nook). Then she felt the frustration and exhaustion of having to fight for your child in a world that is stacked against them. This wise, inspiring book will appeal to not only parents of children with autism, but anyone interested in stories about the selflessness and endurance of maternal love. A rare and diverse collection of autistic voices that highlights to parents the unique needs of girls and nonbinary people who are growing up with autism. She has created an amazing platform through her blog Finding Cooper’s Voice and her paid Facebook group of which I am a member, Coop’s Troops.Turns out it’s remarkably easy to make a recommendation, even if that rec is a subject of massive contention in the autism community. Kate Swenson has pulled the curtain back to show first-hand the challenges of life with a child with severe autism. She speaks regularly about autism, parenting and motherhood, and is a contributor to Today Parents, the Today show, Her View from Home and the Love What Matters blog. I follow Kate’s page on Facebook and I’m so glad I was able to get an advanced copy of her book, thanks NetGalley! Kate takes us on the journey from when her first child, Cooper, was born, up to recent times (he is now eleven).

I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255, “Guides Concerning the Use of Testimonials and Endorsements in Advertising. I was with Kate and Cooper every step of the way thank you so much for sharing your life the highs and the very lows.And then in the beginning, I was like, you know, gunning for every treatment and measuring everything and just, you know, and at some point you have to like, go like, wait a second, I have my own life to my own dreams of my own.

So I love the fact that I mean your, you know, many years behind me and you and you were saying about how nothing falls into your lap. And I mean, any mom, I think that shares on social media, you will get shamed about your kids dirty noses and the sugar they eat and dirty car seats. Kate Swenson is the creator of the blog and Facebook page Finding Cooper’s Voice, which has almost 500,000 followers.And seeing Cooper reach new milestones is a testament to how hard his family fights for him by advocating and educating others about autism. Within her pages, Kate gives you permission to be real, to worry, celebrate, cry, or get angry, when the world says you need to smile and pretend like everything is wonderful. And then Sawyer just kind of skated through because he was so in a sense, you can just say easy to parent.

What’s difficult is determining why autism is more frequently diagnosed now than ever before and yet there’s still no great system for determining what sorts of supports any individual needs. um, anyone can read this book and have a better understanding of what autism can be like for parents, siblings, and families. She speaks regularly about autism, parenting, and motherhood, and is a contributor to TODAY Parents, The TODAY Show, and the Love What Matters blog. So what are your hopes for your future, for Cooper's future, for your book, for yourself or your family? But you know what I've learned over the years, like I did a video blog on can you tell how a two year old's going to do an eight or 18?Kate is a big advocate for parent journeys in the midst of navigating diagnosis, resources, and treatment for children with autism. To those who are not neuro diverse or without knowledge of it please read this and pass along we deserve to be a part of this beautiful world. I'm a former special education teacher, and I believe this would be a beneficial read for anyone, but especially for teachers, speech pathologists, etc (those who work with children with autism). She speaks regularly about autism, parenting, and motherhood, and is a contributor to TODAY Parents , The TODAY Show , and the Love What Matters blog. I didn't know that that could be negative, and I've definitely changed the way I speak a lot about autism now for a few reasons because I can reach anybody.
