Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew. From the book by Ellen Notbohm©
- I am a whole child. My autism is part of who I am, not all of who I am.
- My senses are out of sync.
- Distinguish between won’t and can’t.
- I interpret language literally.
- Listen to all the ways I’m trying to communicate.
- Picture this! I am visually oriented.
- Focus and build on what I can do rather than what I can’t do.
- Help me with thinking and being social.
- Identify what triggers my meltdowns.
- Love me unconditionally.
