Excellent resource for those who deal with preteens/teens on the spectrum. Promotes working with the adolescent and strategies for turning things like preoccupations and routines into positive traits and how to manage them when they aren't. Lots of good information on how to approach these things and common adolescent trials in a "How we can help" manner and strives to make sure that everything is done with the cooperation and ownership of the adolescent. The book also covers in the last chapter how to deal with things once they hit 18 like college, job placement, medical insurance, and other issues.
Definitely recommend this as a resource for parents and teachers who have to work closely with AS kids.
