About this listen

Keeping children bodies, minds, and emotions on task just got easier with this new book from self-regulation expert Teresa Garland.

Featuring more than 200 practical and proven interventions, strategies, and adaptations for helping children gain more control over their lives. Each chapter provides rich background and theoretical material to help the listener better understand the issues our children face.

Topics include: basic and advanced methods to calm a child and to preventing outbursts and melt-downs; interventions to help with attention problems, impulse control, distractibility, and the ability to sit still; stories and video-modeling for autism, along with techniques to quell repetitive behaviors; sensory strategies for sensitivity and craving; behavioral and sensory approaches to picky eating; ways to increase organization skills using technology and apps; and strategies for managing strong emotions as well as techniques for releasing them.

IMO there are three types of nonfiction books, those that provide theory only, practical advice only and finally one which balances both theory and practical.

This is a Practical only book and again IMO would work better as a read not listen book, the stories are long and not useful unless you are putting them to action and as has been said some of the advice appears to be off point.

Practical advice but not perfect

Not bad in terms of helping with regulation for sensory issues, but some of it too close to ABA for my liking. Also ableist in some ways and not neuro positive. Autism Speaks research is used in this book, so pretty questionable in my personal view.

Some reasonably good ideas around helping with regulation but ABA

Suggesting rewarding kids with food for not stimming is just damn wrong. Setting them up for potential disordered eating. Shockingly bad! I didn’t get further than this part as I was scared to read on! #actuallyautistic

Scary suggestions. BEWARE!
