IS MY CHILD AUTISTIC?
ENCOURAGING ANSWERS TO A SCARY QUESTION
SCHMIDT, BERNHARD J.
If the first deviations from normal development occur in a
child, be it language, motor skills or social interaction, parents
and educators often wonder if this child may be autistic.
Autism currently dominates not only research, but also the
media. This, however, under a false understanding of autism
as an incurable disease.
However, the new social-psychological and developmentdynamic
theory of autism makes it clear that autism is not a
disease, but another form of being.
And that autistic children can also develop normally, need
social interaction for development, and are willing and able to
do so.
It only needs a higher sensitivity to allow autistic children to
socialize.
The book explains what autism is, how to recognize autistic
children, and what should be considered as a precautionary
measure to help autistic children develop normally.
