I’m reading books about teaching kids on the spectrum life skills. Every example is an ideal situation where they make the instruction clear, use visual aides, and show the kid how to do it. Once the kid understands, they do what they’re told. The author of the book says that her mom was the authority on everything from the beginning. Well, I’m not.
