Soft cover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. Stepping Stones is a trail guide of hope for all parents and caregivers of children who appear to have advantages, but somehow do not; who want to be happy and fit in, but largely cannot; who yearn to be treated respectfully, but usually are not. Stepping Stones is a first-person narrative of one family's raising a child with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and the persevering and progressive self-development it provoked. From the distinct advantage of countless wayfinding steps more than twenty years in the making, the parents and grown son recount their initial ignorance and vulnerability to emerge as an inspirational example of perseverance, growth and success. As the first student in the school district diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, the son unfortunately became the blunt instrument of change it required but didn't know it needed. Despite advances in diagnoses, therapies and other accommodations, many systemic inequities against the neurodivergent remain to be dismantled. This book introduces the concepts required to continue organizational change. And to all parents and caregivers of children with ASD, this true tale offers pragmatic guidance, self-help encouragement, and real reason for hope. 166 pages. Includes several "polyplot" mathematical art designs created by Philip Herd. Signed by Author(s).…
