I hope you enjoyed yesterday's guest post from Pamela Bryson-Weaver. She is a mother of 3 children, one of which has autism.
A few weeks ago, Pamela, offered to send me her book. Anytime a parent of a child with special needs writes a book, I want to read it because they have a whole different perspective than I do as a teacher. I learn so much from reading books written by parents/families of people with disabilities. I especially liked the way Pamela wrote the book in a diary like manner because like most parents, I don't have time to sit and read for hours like I used to. Pamela's book was very easy to read, did not require much time, and was very uplifting. If you are a parent or caretaker of a child with special needs, I highly recommend her book.
Each day of the year, has a short 1 page story or note. The book is filled with:
- daily reflections and strategies
- autism awareness & practical advice
- humor, anecdotes, paradoxes
- tips, references, and resources
- self-awareness, managing emotions
- space for your notes
- inspiring quotes,
Thank you! I was a wonderful post and got read Pamela's new article about the aged debate on autism and vaccine. It was a good read: http://livingautismnow.com/vaccine-caused-my-sons-autism-but-thats-just-me
