Very helpful
As a dad of an autistic son, I cannot thank the author enough! Navigating life after the diagnosis is not easy but the book is able to break down the process in a step-by-step guide which is sectioned in an easy to listen format. My hfa son is 7 and currently struggling with boundaries and school, thanks to Maureen we can see a light at the end of the tunnel. If you are needing some advice from another parent who is just like us, then I would recommend you listen to this book.
