Description

Words like “aggressive” and “violent” are often improperly used as descriptors for the behaviors of people with Autism. They’re anti-social words that have a broad range of consequences that are very scary for parents raising children with Autism. Discover why words matter, and how the language we use for dysregulated behavior in our children needs to shift. I’m sharing my preferred language for referring to violence or aggression, and how we can start focusing efforts on ways we can better understand and support our children.Get full show notes and more information here: https://theautismmomcoach.com/55
