| Summary |
"Is this required now? I thought it was optional. The book is a parents' and teachers' guide to preventing unintentional injuries in children, teens, and young adults who are on the autism spectrum. It covers precautions adults can take at home, school, and in the community to keep people with autism from drowning, getting burned, getting run over by cars, ingesting poisons, falling out of windows, etc. It also covers strategies to use to teach people with autism to avoid these hazards themselves"-- Provided by publisher. |
