Parenting a child with an Autism Spectrum Condition can be challenging. This practical training looks at the differences and similarities of Autism, Asperger's Syndrome and Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) and gives attendees a "tool-kit" of strategies to help make parenting a child with these conditions a little easier.
