My young nephew was recently diagnosed as being on the autistic spectrum (and mild adhd) and I'm wondering if there's any books out there me and @Njord could read to be a better aunt/uncle to him
I know there's a lot of books out there written from by people who have kids with autism that focus on their needs/pov rather than the kids so I'd really like to avoid those
@eniko @Njord I haven't read it yet, but maybe _Life on th Bridge_? The author is both autistic *and* a therapist.
Might want to ask the mighty #ActuallyAutistic as well.
@emerssso @eniko @Njord
I don't have any books to rec off the top of my head, but I spent a while a few years back compiling resources available on the web about autism, all stuff created by autistic people about autism
I haven't updated it in a while, so it's missing some newer resources and it's possible some of the links are dead, but there's still a lot of good info there.
