I am a writer and mother of four, including a girl now 24 and a boy now 19 with Asperger’s Syndrome. It has been 13 years now since my daughter was diagnosed with Asperger’s.

These were years during which I dug out lots of information and set up various parenting structures and strategies in our household.

I’m going to go through and write up a review so that everyone else will know how good your book is, but I also want my husband to write up a review from a dad’s point of view. It’s SO important that the other dads out there know that they are not alone out there either."

Written by a Christian mom of two Aspergers Children, Phyllis Wheeler really knows – first hand – what works, and what doesn’t work for our kids. She’s been where we are now – from the discovery that our child is different to raising and teaching them through adult hood.

This author isn’t a Dr telling us what “we should be doing”. Nor is she just beginning out on the journey with an Aspergers Child. She’s been there and done that! She’s… Read more…
