Autism family education
◆ The sooner the child discovers it, the earlier the human intervention, and the greater the possibility of recovery in the future.

◆ If the real method is in place, children can return to the mainstream society to a large extent.

◆ It is definitely not the teacher of the institution who can bring the children out and return to the mainstream society, but our parents.

This is a road to self-help. With the support of professionals like Dr. Jia, this road will be smoother.

0 1 autism in China

Autism is a chronic disease. About two-thirds of autistic children have poor prognosis, accounting for the first place in children's mental disability at present. They have no independent social skills, it is difficult to learn survival skills, and they lack the ability to live alone. The result of treatment and training depends on the age found and the severity of the disease.

1982 reported the first case of autism in China, and the number of cases found since then has been increasing. However, there are still many children who have missed the diagnosis, because they have lost the best opportunity for treatment and intervention, which has brought a heavy burden to the family and society.

During Dr. Jia's clinical diagnosis for many years, patients came from all provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions in China. The youngest child is only 6 months old, and there are more children who behave abnormally in 24-36 months.

Analysis of misdiagnosis causes of autism

●? Most people don't know enough about this disease, and children can't speak, which is mistaken for the problem of pronunciation organs and hearing.

●? Some children's parents found something was wrong in a few months, and many times they went to the hospital for examination (such as brain magnetic resonance imaging and EEG) and found abnormalities. Most doctors don't know enough about this disease. For example, children can't talk, mistakenly think that there is something wrong with the pronunciation organs, and they can't see the problem in hearing. They should go home and observe, and parents blindly think that it will be better to be bigger.

●? 2-3 years old obviously lags behind children of the same age, only to feel that there is a problem, and then go to the hospital for examination.

●? Some children's parents didn't find the problem at all, and they were discovered by experienced teachers when they went to kindergarten.

●? The doctor's diagnosis is unclear, and parents are unwilling to accept the reality. It also makes children lose the best opportunity for treatment and intervention. Once you are over 7 years old, the progress of intervention will be slow or the effect will be greatly reduced.

●? Unfortunately, so far, we have not found a drug that can cure autism.

Psychological characteristics of parents with autism: the psychology of not facing and accepting reality.

Most of these newly diagnosed parents can't accept this reality. I will think that both husband and wife are excellent. How can such a child appear? In particular, my mother's mood is fragile, and she began to cry in the clinic, and even several parents cried loudly. Parents think that once diagnosed, the child may have no hope in this life.

After the child was diagnosed, most parents were shocked and confused, especially the younger children, and their family members had different opinions. Old people often say: it turns out that boys speak late, and the old saying goes that nobles speak late. Parents then wait blindly, don't believe the doctor's diagnosis, and go home without training. At this time, the children will be taken to the hospital, but the golden age of intervention has often passed.

Guilt psychology

There are also some parents who feel guilty and sorry for their children, and think that it is their fault to give birth to such children, and the children are innocent. Parents think: my children are too poor! I would rather not let him train, so that all his requirements can be met and he can grow up happily. As a result, children are overprotected like little emperors and little princesses.

In this way, children have developed many bad habits. Some children are willful, lose their temper and hit themselves. The family thinks that this can't be done, so in order to make the child feel good, they will satisfy the child unprincipled and even overcompensate. In this case, some children are finally spoiled and spoiled by their parents, and many behavior habits have not been developed. By the time I went to kindergarten, I couldn't go to school again, and my parents were anxious again.

Conceal the occlusion psychology from the outside

Especially the parents of some intellectual families feel that they are excellent outside. How could such a problem befall them? So they dare not face it and don't want more people to know that they have such children. Parents often adopt an evasive attitude towards colleagues, friends and neighbors. For example, there is a playground at home. If he doesn't go, he must take the children to a playground far away. He doesn't want his children to associate with the children he knows.

So every time I go out to socialize, my children are in contact with strange children. Besides, I have social problems and won't communicate with others. I often cause problems because of my behavior. Parents also let their children miss a lot of opportunities and space for recovery.

Anxiety psychology

Many parents come to consult doctors immediately after their children are diagnosed: which institution can save my children and which institution can change my children's fate, I will not hesitate to spend the most expensive money. Many parents think that tuition is the most expensive and must be the best. And the teacher with the highest price must be experienced. Nowadays, many institutions also cater to the needs of parents. In some institutions, a teacher charges 700 yuan for 50 minutes of training, and some children spend 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a month on training, which is unbearable for most working-class families.

Parents must remember that this is a protracted war. Every child has different problems, and different age groups will have different problems, just like normal children. So I don't want vicious competition between institutions, and I don't want special education teachers to change institutions everywhere, which will only delay our children.

High expectation psychology

Parents should not expect too much from their children. They should consider the children's actual situation, cooperate with teachers, use some scientific methods, step by step, and take pains to let children learn to summarize and learn in life every day.

There are also some parents who did spend a lot of time and energy in their early years and took their children to many institutions. However, when they see that their children have made little progress, when they reach the bottleneck, parents often feel anxious and impatient, and they are easy to compare with other children who have made significant progress, and feel that they have paid, but they are not proportional to the return, resulting in some despair.

In fact, there are many reasons. First, the degree of children is different, including light, medium and heavy. Can parents really analyze their children with teachers? What are their advantages? What are the weaknesses? Where to intervene and how to train?

Self-indulgence psychology

After a period of intervention, especially when children always have a gap with normal children, or the progress is not obvious, parents feel physically and mentally exhausted, their painful emotions have nowhere to talk, their hardships and anguish cannot be understood by others, and they lack spiritual support for a long time.

Parents blame each other and blame each other, thinking that it is the other's responsibility, which eventually leads to family breakdown and divorce. Both of them ignored their children and left them to their elderly parents. Parents re-establish families, making children more lonely and miserable.

The role of parents in training intervention. The health of parents is an important factor to ensure the progress of children.

Parents must be healthy, not only physically, but also psychologically. Husband and wife should learn from each other, understand each other and tolerate each other. In fact, children can't feel pain. It is our parents who are really hurt. But if parents live in pain forever, children really can't practice.

We hope that parents can get rid of it early and embark on the road of intervention training one day earlier. This road is quite difficult, but as long as we work hard and cooperate with professionals, I believe this road should still be very good. There are also many successful cases ahead. Parents' efforts, mutual trust, mutual understanding, mutual acceptance and mutual support among family members are very important for children to truly cultivate and return to the mainstream society.

A harmonious family atmosphere and a strong marriage are important conditions to ensure the cultivation of children.

In the process of cultivating and intervening children, parents must give their children a demonstration and set an example. Don't expect miracles, don't expect to find the most experienced teachers and the best institutions, and you can cultivate children.

I hope parents can seize the limited time and help their children themselves. Really pay attention to the psychological changes during the child's growth, including the child's understanding and cognition of knowledge. I hope parents should take responsibility, don't just be busy with their jobs and majors, and must take time to pay attention to their children and give them more affection and attachment, instead of putting all this on the elderly.

Husband and wife and family members should understand each other, support each other, rationally divide their work, mobilize all available resources, and try to be consistent in understanding and attitude, especially in front of children. In order to keep children's training scientific and effective, and arrange family life and children's main trainers, the whole family should work together in Qi Xin.

A sense of responsibility for children

Since the child is born, you have the obligation to raise him. No one can take the place of parents. For parents, first of all, you should adjust your mentality, face it positively and study relevant training methods and skills hard. In daily life, we should master and use these training methods flexibly, and constantly come and go to intervene and train children. Moreover, many words and deeds of parents also directly affect our children and the effect of training.

positive attitude

Parents should have a positive attitude. Slowly come out from the initial blow. No one can help you. We can only rely on our own strength and efforts. Most importantly, parents must face and accept their children.

How to really accept it, we should study hard and find out the relationship between general education and special education, and the relationship between family education, institutional education and school education. The more knowledge parents know, the more they learn and the more confident they will be.

One more thing, it is also important to build a communication platform between parents. You may not be so sensitive to your own children, but you are sensitive to other people's children, so parents can often discuss together and take their children out for outings, dinners, parties, etc. We can learn some advanced ideas and methods from each other and the experience of our predecessors, learn some lessons in advance and avoid detours.

Perseverance spirit

Parents must realize that this disease is not short-term, but long-term, perhaps a lifelong project. So far, there is no drug that can fundamentally cure children. The words "intervention" and "cultivation" are easy to say, but this is a complex and long-term systematic project, which is a great test for children and parents. Therefore, parents should establish confidence and courage to overcome difficulties. In this way, as long as you insist, I believe the child can still repay you.

Find the most suitable training method for children.

Autistic children have common characteristics, but there are huge individual differences. Therefore, in the process of correcting children, we can't just rely on a single training method and model. According to children of different ages, periods and stages, we should grasp the principles, methods and scales in family training as needed, create a good family atmosphere, and adopt comprehensive intervention and training methods for children.

Family-based training

In the process of training, we should focus on family training, and institutional training is temporary, including going to school, and may only be permanent in the family. In order to let children really return to the mainstream, we should give them some effective training methods suitable for children, and persist for several hours every day, maybe several years or even more than ten years. There is no shortcut. I hope everyone will take a positive attitude and face their children every day.
