12:02 My Son’s Interest in Learning Chinese
If my child (4) is showing interest in learning Chinese should I encourage it? He is behind in speech for English, I don’t want to confuse him, but I have heard you say we should foster their interests.
12:38 Navigating Autism
13:31 What inspired your to write navigating Autism?
15:40 In Navigating Autism you talk about the importance of looking at the whole unique individual, and getting regular comprehensive evaluations. I agree, but I find this is hard to get physicians and educators on board for – what do you suggest we do when we get push back at the doctor’s office or at school.

27:17 My son (8) is obsessed with the moving parts of anything. I have to lock up the toaster or he will take it apart!

I should add, he takes the things apart but shows no interest in putting them back together.

40:52 I am on the spectrum and I have a degree in community planning, I cannot get a job in my field. I get interviews but I know I come across as being different and then I don’t get the job. I don’t know what I am doing that is wrong and I am very frustrated. What should I do?
43:30 My daughter is 16 and I have been told we should start the conservatorship conversation. I want to keep my daughter safe, but I also want her to have as much independence as possible. What do you recommend. She is 16 and verbal, but she is not safe and is a little boy crazy.’
45:37 Do you find it easier to be friends with people on the spectrum? Is it different for you ? In what way?
46:05 There is more and more discussion about the way autism presents in women – that it is different than in males. I would love to hear your thoughts on how it presents in women.
