John Robison was never a model child, and he wasnt a model dad either. Diagnosed with Aspergers syndrome at the age of 40, he approached fatherhood as a series of logic puzzles and practical jokes. Still, John got the basics right. The one thing John couldnt figure out was what to do when school authorities decided that Cubby was dumb and stubborn - the very same thing he had been told as a child. Did Cubby have Aspergers too? http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1550939 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1630149 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1547073 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1632124 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1669160 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1628999 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1649908 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1523561 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1498279 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1274847 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1274932 Collects the latest information on autism research, therapies, evaluations, and treatment centers. http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1346915 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1477340 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1203509 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1193217 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1267281 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1393452 Why Twice-Exceptional Kids Are Stuck and How to Help ThemBright, talented children diagnosed with developmental or learning disorders are known as Twice Exceptional (or 2e).

He was intelligent but socially isolated; his talents won him jobs with toy makers and rock bands but did little to endear him to authority figures and classmates, who were put off by his inclination to blurt out non sequiturs and avoid eye contact. By the time he was diagnosed at age forty, he had already developed a myriad of coping strategies that helped him achieve a seemingly normal, even highly successful, life. In this new book he shares a new batch of stories about his childhood, adolescence, and young adult years, giving the reader a rare window into the Aspergian mind. In each story, he offers practical advice, for Aspergians and indeed for anyone who feels different, on how to improve the weak communication and social skills that keep so many people from taking full advantage of their often remarkable gifts. He addresses questions like: How to read others and follow their behaviors when in uncertain social situations; Why manners matter; How to harness your powers of concentration to master difficult skills; How to deal with bullies; When to make an effort to fit in, and when to embrace eccentricity; How to identify special gifts and use them to your advantage; The message this book puts forth is that every person, Aspergian or not, has something unique to offer the world, and every person has the capacity to create strong, loving bonds with their friends and family, and its goal is to help readers and those they love find their path to success. http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1306890 http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1280913 Create a trust that provides financial security for a loved one with special needs without jeopardizing government benefits.
