Ever since he was small, John Robison had longed to connect with other people, but by the time he was a teenager, his odd habits, an inclination to blurt out non sequiturs, avoid eye contact, dismantle radios, and dig five-foot holes, had earned him the label "social deviant". No guidance came from his mother or his father. It was no wonder he gravitated to machines, which could, at least, be counted on.

In truth, it is both of these things and more - and the future of our society depends on our understanding it. Wired reporter Steve Silberman unearths the secret history of autism, long suppressed by the same clinicians who became famous for discovering it, and finds surprising answers to the crucial question of why the number of diagnoses has soared in recent years.

Story
Autism therapy typically focuses on ridding individuals of “autistic” symptoms such as difficulties interacting socially, problems in communicating, sensory challenges, and repetitive behavior patterns. Now Dr. Barry M. Prizant offers a new and compelling paradigm: The most successful approaches to autism don’t aim at fixing a person by eliminating symptoms, but rather seeking to understand the individual’s experience and what underlies the behavior. Rather than curb these behaviors, it’s better to enhance abilities, build on strengths, and offer supports.

Overall informative
Where does Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
My son was just diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. I learned a lot from the book and will listen again and take more notes.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew?
She told the story about seeing a fortune teller. Perfect example of how otherwise smart and gifted people often fall for stupid shit.
What does Stephanie Cozart bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I might not make the time otherwise.
What did you learn from Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew that you would use in your daily life?
Make a great schedule for my son. I should have known this already since he listens so much better when there is a clear plan.
Any additional comments?
I would recommend this book.

Not too universal
The author tried to talk about the good traits of autism. Like they never lie... she never met my kid. Good news is he is horrible at lying but the bad news is he doesn’t stop even though I call him out on his BS. I know the bully didn’t throw the school across the road and shot up the play yard with a gun.
I know their are good traits, my son talked early, walked early, just lacked expressive language, preferred labeling things and repeating questions he knows the answer too.
This book explains things I already know and puts some concept into different words, but I find myself drifting and not really listening to much of it because it’s not filling in the gaps or explaining anything I don’t already know.

The author is a better parent than you
This book doesn't stay focused on the 10 things. I picked up a few things of value, but the content gets watered down by personal stories about how a Doctor/Teacher/Parent/Professional Person did the wrong thing, but the Super Parent author helicoptered in to save the day.
If you're looking to understand more about Autism Spectrum Disorder, this book might not have enough focus on the topic for you. If you distrust your kid's school, doctor, counselor, or anyone else who is not you, this may irritate your anxieties more than it helps.
