LIVING WITH ASPERGER'S: Life Skills for People on the Spectrum
This is a video for parents, Aspie's, anyone with sensory issues or on the autism spectrum, and anyone who works with them! Jennifer has a lifetime of personal experience with Asperger's syndrome and Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), so her concrete ideas of what worked and didn't work for her actually are fascinating. She openly talks about the innovative ways she learned to navigate the world of the "normal" people. She would be good enough to listen to just for those things, but the fact that she's straight-forward and laces it all with a hearty sense of humor creates a riveting presentation you won't forget.
Co-author of the award-winning book Asperger’s and Girls, Jennifer McIlwee Myers is a terrific writer and speaker with Asperger’s syndrome. Her brother had autism, but she wasn't diagnosed with Asperger’s until 2002. She is author of the popular books Growing Up With Sensory Issues and How To Teach Life Skills to Kids with Autism or Asperger’s (1-935274-13-9). Jennifer earned a bachelor’s degree in computer science and currently lives in California with her husband Gary.
