Helping your autistic child transition to adulthood is complicated and challenging, and far too few books have been written about it. Susan tackles the big, scary issues with her trademark warmth and wisdom. Whether she’s writing about employment, healthcare, housing, care-givers, siblings, or the intricacies of navigating governmental agencies, Susan offers realistic, practical, and reassuring advice. Her chapter on health and safety issues alone is worth the price of the book.
