Warum manchmal ein Brett vorm Kopf klebt und wieso man im Sitzen miteinander gehen kann

Why doesn’t anyone understand me? What should I do when I’m in love? Will I find a suitable job? These are questions many young people face. However, for adolescents with an autism spectrum disorder, such questions often carry a particular weight. This guide helps them navigate the complexities of everyday life. Many tips assist with recurring challenges in school and family, in communication situations, and daily routines. The authors also provide answers to specific questions about perception, feelings, small talk, friendships, first romantic relationships, puberty, and sex—right up to the question of whether and when autistic adolescents should come out and whether they should try to become "normal." A companion for children and adolescents, it is also an enriching read for their families, friends, and therapists.
