Description
This professional guide provides practical teaching advice for professionals working with children and young adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) when learning about puberty, sexuality and relationships.
It covers key topics such as gender, public and private, puberty, hygiene, emotions, sex and more, providing an overview of the difficulties that children with autism might experience, discussion and activity ideas and photocopiable resources.
The book also offers guidance on responding to ongoing patterns of inappropriate behaviour and creating a behaviour plan, aiming to support the child's developing sexuality while addressing crucial issues of safety.
