Popis: | Providing comprehensive care and education services to children and adolescents with autism is a complex process (see Fiske et al., 2014). Typically, the parent is working in collaboration with the educational system, the medical system, and a specialist in neurodevelopment (developmental pediatrician, neurologist, child psychiatrist, or psychologist). These systems each have a distinct role in the child's care. They are often speaking a different “language” from one another, governed by the conventions and (in the case of special education) the laws of their field. At the most vulnerable time of diagnosis, families face the daunting task of negotiating between these professionals and trying to develop comprehensive programming and shared understanding of their child's strengths and needs. |
