Abstract

Recognising, expressing and understanding emotions helps young children make sense of their life experiences. Children diagnosed with autism can have significant difficulties with recognising and processing emotions which can lead to high levels of anxiety as they struggle to make sense of the unpredictable world around them.

The 'Fun with Feelings' programme is designed to help parents support their children with emotional regulation and to decrease anxiety. This guide is structured around 10 stages. The initial four stages prepare parents to implement the programme with their child. These stages help parents understand the causes of anxiety and provide practical strategies for creating a toolbox to reduce anxiety. The final six stages are used in conjunction with Having Fun with Feelings on the Autism Spectrum: A CBT Activity Book for Kids Age 4-8, allowing parents to support their child while working through the activity book.

Written by world-leading experts in the field, 10 Steps to Reducing Your Child's Anxiety on the Autism Spectrum provides the steppingstones for parents of young children with autism to better understand their child's emotional skill set and empower them to understand and articulate their feelings.

"The fifteen authors and nine artists in this volume bring us beautiful, speculative stories of disability and mental illness in the future. Teeming with space pirates, battle robots, interstellar travel and genetically engineered creatures, every story and image is a quality, crafted work of science fiction in its own right, as thrilling and fascinating as it is worthy and important. These are stories about people with disabilities in all of their complexity and diversity, that scream with passion and intensity. These are stories that refuse to go gently."

Abstract

Comment annoncer à un enfant la mort d'un proche? Quelles peuvent être ses réactions à la perte d'un être cher? Comment l'aider à traverser ces moments difficiles? Ce guide pratique s'adresse aux parents, grands-parents, oncles et tantes, parrains et marraines, etc., qui, confrontés à un décès dans leur famille ou dans leur entourage, se préoccupent de ce que vivent les enfants. Il concerne également les professionnels de l'enfance et de la famille (éducateurs, assistants sociaux, psychologues, enseignants, etc.) qui sont amenés à suivre un enfant en deuil. À l'aide d'explications théoriques et d'exemples tirés de leur pratique, les auteurs apportent un éclairage ciblé sur différentes facettes du processus de deuil de l'enfant. Des pistes de réflexion et d'action sont suggérées et détaillées par âges, allant de la prime enfance à l'adolescence. Des conseils utiles sont également proposés aux adultes et à la famille dans son ensemble. Ce guide a été réalisé par les intervenantes de la fondation As'trame, qui accompagne des enfants en deuil et leurs familles depuis plus de vingt ans. L'expérience accumulée au cours de ces nombreuses années constitue la substance même du livre. Celui-ci est structuré en chapitres indépendants qui peuvent être lus séparément les uns des autres. Le lecteur peut ainsi trouver rapidement des réponses à ses questions sans avoir à parcourir l'entier de l'ouvrage.
