Frequently Asked Questions
How can I include my other children in the care of their sibling?
It is important to include siblings of a child with autism in their care. It helps build a better relationship among the children and prevents other children from feeling neglected or angry because of the extra attention the autistic child might receive. Taking siblings along to doctor’s appointments and involving them in the therapies at home or elsewhere can be a good start. This tells the children that they have a say in their sibling’s treatment and helps them feel empowered as well as more attached to the process.
