“This course has positively impacted my home life more than I could even put into words. I have two children on the spectrum, 14 yr old boy and 9 yr old girl.  By asking better questions and applying the What?, How? And Tell me I have managed to get my son re-engaged in secondary school and reduced my daughters meltdowns.   I have been struggling to get my son to attend school since the COVID 19 homeschooling period ceased which sent his routine into turmoil.  I was “telling him” rather than empowering him for months when all I needed to do was ask him better questions.  I spent a morning asking him better questions and drawing information out of him by responding to his all too familiar “I don’t know” the way you taught me and this has been my saving grace.  My son has opened up to me more than he ever has and shared with me the reasons why he doesn’t want to go to school.   I used this information to have a better conversation with him.  He then devised his own return to school plan, told ME what days would work for him and he has continued to commit to his 3 days per week for the past 2 weeks.  WINNING 😊  Previous to this he was just refusing to go.  THANK you from the bottom of my heart this has been an emotional rollercoaster and the simple techniques I am very grateful for.  I have recommended this course to all at work and feel this is a course that has the capacity to assist all parents especially those who have children on the spectrum.”
