Review
“Senator hits the nail on the head once again . . . This is a must-read for any parent with a child on the autism spectrum as well as caregivers, siblings, and extended family.” – Library Journal (starred review)"As an emotional resource, Senator's book is excellent." —Kirkus, for Autism Adulthood"In this book, like her others, the wonderful Susan Senator gives voice to those who are too often voiceless -- folks with ASD who seek what they deserve -- lives of purpose and possibilities." -- Ron Suskind, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and bestselling author of Life Animated, A Story of Sidekicks, Heroes and Autism.“In her frank and deeply touching new book, Susan Senator faces the big issues—housing, employment, relationships with siblings, finding trustworthy caregivers—head-on, and offers practical strategies for giving young autistic people the best chance to lead happy and secure lives, mapping a pathway to the future. She offers a blueprint for a world in which people at every point on the spectrum are treated as fellow citizens who deserve respect and the ability to make choices.” —Steve Silberman, author of NeuroTribes: The Legacy of Autism and the Future of Neurodiversity"There is a huge need for books to help individuals with autism make the transition to adulthood. Autism is a wide spectrum, ranging from a brilliant Aspergers at a technology company to an adult who cannot dress himself. These individuals need very different services. Susan Senator describes successful journeys, as well as her own with her son Nat. I highly recommend Autism Adulthood for parents and teachers who are guiding individuals in the middle range within the broad autism spectrum." --Temple Grandin, author of The Autistic Brain, and Thinking in Pictures "Autism Adulthood is a book I will be recommending to every autism parent I know. Senator is as warm as she is wise, as thoughtful as she is knowledgeable, as compassionate as she is informative. Her rallying cry of “All we can do is love each other” will resound in any parent’s heart. Senator loves fiercely--which means she does everything she can to ensure the best life and future for her adult child with autism. This book will inspire the rest of us to do the same for ours."--Claire LaZebnik, co-author of Overcoming Autism, with Dr. Lynn Kern Koegel"From the introduction, Autism Adulthood: Strategies and Insights for a Fulfilling Life will bring you to that dark place parents of young adults with autism fear. But just as quickly, Susan offers practical advice through story-telling and concise, how-to strategies that will leave you feeling optimistic, hopeful and back in control - all any of us can ask for. A thoroughly readable and important book." -- Arthur Fleischmann, Author of Carly's Voice: Breaking Through Autism"Many readers will find comfort in her advice and helpful concluding list of resources." --Booklist

An important and helpful book for parents and professionals. Susan Senator weaves her family's story with those of several other parents and interviews autistic adults to show what's needed to launch a young adult with social and communication needs. The book includes sections on housing, caregivers, the range of needs, heath and safety, and letting go. She provides strategies for preparing for autism adulthood and advises parents to start early, do research, and reach out to friends, associates, and professionals. She shares her experiences in order to make the transition easier for families who follow. Families of children in middle school and high school should read this book so they can prepare for their children's aging out of the school system. Includes lots of tips and resources to get started.
Susan Senator is an autism parent who has fought in the trenches for services for her son Nat and has lived to tell us about it, several times. Autism Adulthood is essential reading as Ms. Senator provides us with blueprints and advice in providing for the futures of our special needs children. The work is complicated, but not impossible as she describes her's and the advocacy of other parents. She answers the questions special needs parents have in a very straightforward way. I bought two copies, one for myself and one for my son's mother as we struggle to come up with a plan for our now teenage son's life.
Helping your autistic child transition to adulthood is complicated and challenging, and far too few books have been written about it. Susan tackles the big, scary issues with her trademark warmth and wisdom. Whether she’s writing about employment, healthcare, housing, care-givers, siblings, or the intricacies of navigating governmental agencies, Susan offers realistic, practical, and reassuring advice. Her chapter on health and safety issues alone is worth the price of the book. Indispensable and engagingly written, “Autism Adulthood†is essential reading on how to give young autistic adults their best chance at living happy, safe, and fulfilling lives.
I wish that I had a book like this 25 years ago. Excellent compendium of advice. I think that she is one of the best lay people writing in the field of the autism spectrum today. HIghly recommend this book to anyone with autism, and family and friends, or anyone who needs to know more.
This was an excellent read. The overview of programs for autistic adults around the country was very helpful. The author clearly hit all the important points- the highs and the lows that parents are faced with in making life long decisions about their loved ones futures after they are no longer around.This is a valuable text for all parents to have and to own.
Good read
This book is written from the heart! Susan Senator does a great job of finding or looking for answers we all ask ourselves about the now and future of our children with ASD! I have a 30yr.old son with ASD! its not easy, having this book makes you feel not alone, and gives you confidence with sense of humor, makes everything better. It gave me tips and strategies, from Meds. to housing... My son Alex read some chapters himself and softly said, Mom this is me! She knows me!
This book is filled with practical advice and "war stories". I picked it up from our local library. After taking over 15 photos of informational pages in the 84 pages I realized it is a book worth buying! I've invited 8 moms for a bookclub like get together. First time I have even thought of having a bookclub!
