Tony Attwood Discusses Asperger’s Syndrome on ABC Sydney
Asperger’s Syndrome expert Tony Attwood spoke with Richard Fidler on his ABC Sydney (Australia) radio show. A brief summary of the show is in text the rest you will need to listen to the audio files by clicking on the link under Attwood’s photograph. This is just a quick update as today is one of our therapy days so I’m heading out the door soon and don’t have time to summarize the audio file. It was very enlightening, especially to me as a mother of a child recently diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome. If you have a spare 45 minutes or so I highly recommend listening to the audio piece.

I am very excited about going to a 2 day seminar with him next month. His book on Asperger Syndrome was the first resource if his that I read and is now my “bible”. I also have a copy of a seminar he gave to teachers aids a couple of years ago and is an invaluable resource.

Here’s the link to Tony’s “conversation”. I have burnt it to CD and given it to family members, the school, our babysitters, and anyone who works closely with Claire, eg Sunday school staff. It’s a lot of good information in a short period of time, and funny, too. He has a wicked sense of humour. If you down;oad the MP3 file you can then burn it to CD. Give it a go, it’s worth it.
