Traveling Different
Vacation Strategies for Parents of the Anxious, the Inflexible, and the Neurodiverse
Zusammenfassung
The award-winning travel bible for parents of children with autism spectrum disorder and/or mood and distraction disorders.
“An essential read, not only for parents of autistic or otherwise neurodivergent children but for all families.”—Library Journal, Starred Review
Traveling with children is always challenging, but for parents of children with autism spectrum disorder and/or mood and attention and distraction disorders it can be especially intimidating. In Traveling Different, Dawn M. Barclay presents travel strategies and anecdotes from Certified Autism Travel Professionals™, parents of special needs children, associations and advocates, and mental health professionals, broken down by mode of transportation and type of venue. The heart of the book outlines suggested itineraries for spectrum families as well as venues that cater to the unique special interests that are characteristic of individuals with autism.
Culminating with a guide of travel agents who specialize in special needs travel and lists of organizations that advocate for special needs families, Traveling Different is the essential resource to make the cultural, educational, and bonding benefits of vacations available to all.
