密歇根新闻广播 如何抚养患有自闭症的孩子

 October is National Bullying¹ Prevention Month. One of the most likely to be on the receiving end of bullying is the child who is on the autism spectrum².

Ron Sandison knows what that's like.

When he was young, Sandison was diagnosed with Aspergers' Syndrome³. Doctors told his parents he would never read beyond a seventh grade level, attend college or have meaningful relationships.

Sandison went on to earn two bachelor's degrees in psychology⁴ and theology, and later a master's degree in divinity. His fourth wedding anniversary is coming up in December, and he celebrated⁵ the birth of his daughter earlier this year.

Now he's written a book for parents of children who are on the autism spectrum. It's called A Parent's Guide To Autism: Practical Advice. Biblical Wisdom.

Sandison joined us today to share his story, talk about bullying, and discuss how his faith played a role in the book and his accomplishments⁶.

More information can be found on his website.
