For you that
have an Autistic in your family, we have prepared a script to give you
the best information you need. You will realize that there are many people
living in a situation like yours (for instance, me, the editor of this
site). It is very important for you to be aware of the needs of this person
that lives with you, and probably depends on you. At the same time you
need to better know what to expect from an Autistic, how to establish the
limits for this person so he/she may learn to live with all the family
without suffering.
We offer a short and simplified definition of the disorder so you could begin to clarify your doubts. But it is also important for the parents and the family to show interest for the formal definitions, what will take to a more thorough comprehension of the situation. We also have in this site a section dedicated to the exchange of experience among the Autistics' families. The stories of each one are peculiar, very singular, but at the same time they identify themselves with the daily life of all the ones who are acquainted with the Autism syndrome. When you read the experiences of the other parents and familiars you will be able to better understand your own sentiments. Anguish, fear, discovery and gladness can be better understood by the experience of others. And like these people, you are undergoing the distress of dealing with a deficient in your family. Therefore feel free to write to AMA in order to have your story also published in this section, because this will help other people to have it as a reference for the living with an Autistic. After you have better understood the world of your son/daughter (brother/sister, cousin, nephew/niece, etc), discover the AMA. Look what the AMA is doing for a happy and dignified future for the Autistics. Take a look at the available treatments. See our students in the pictures gallery. Know which are the other Brazilian institutions that are working for the Autistics. And finally, read more. Travel all over the world, getting information spread in the net about the Autism by means of a selection of sites that we have picked out for you. And always come back to know the news. Would you like to talk more? Having doubts? Seeking for a treatment? Write to us. We will answer you as soon as possible. |
