[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Clearly some posters don't realize this is in the Special Needs & Disabilities forum and found the thread through Recent Topics. Parenting classes...ha. Hahahahahahahaha. Ha.[/quote]

Therapists all recommend parenting classes for ASD children.

Guess what the number 1 reason the classes don’t work? One of the parents has ASD too, and cannot and will not apply the new parenting skills taught. [/quote]

Clearly you have no idea how this works do you? I have autism, work with kids with autism, and have taught parenting classes to parents with autism raising kids with autism. It works if it’s done right.

Stop treating people with autism like they can’t learn or that they are less than capable because of some ridiculous  label. You are not doing them any favors but never teaching them how to interact within society in a neurotypical way.

Yes, it’s hard. Yes, it takes longer. Yes, it’s expensive. Yes, it’s a ton of work. Yes, it’s worth it.[/quote]

Where is YOUR class??  I would take that![/quote]

Private home-based mostly, though have a myriad of other experiences under my belt including teaching “formal” parenting classes. I like home based for these types of situations since they really require 1:1 work as all families are so complex and different.

Currently not working due to caring for elderly parent, but I try to answer DCUM questions when I can. Despite people almost always telling me I don’t know what I’m talking about- I find this quite amusing actually. Hopefully one day I’ll get back to my main love of helping children and families.[/quote]
