Behavior Solutions for the Home is a tool for parents whose children's behaviors are impeding their daily life. Once they see a particular behavior, parents can quickly look up an in-the-moment solution and read more about what could be causing that behavior—and more importantly, how to overcome it. This helpful book is intended to provide general, practical solutions for busy (and often overwhelmed) parents who can benefit from a handy reference guide to help them address common behaviors at home and in the community. This book is a must-have for every parent and caregiver working with a child on the autism spectrum!
