Uta Frith on Radio 3 (Autism Awareness Day)

longman

Just found out that the development psychologist with views on autism and dyslexia, Professor Uta Frith, is being interviewed every morning this week, at about 10.30 am, on BBC Radio 3, with her choices of music. Its a kind of up-market Desert Island Discs.

Don't know how many if any are regular Radio 3 listeners, but it is interesting that BBC have made the gesture around Autism Awareness Day 2nd April, of bringing on a psychologist interested in autism.

Its an opportunity to get some insight into one of the psychologists who profess to know all about us.

But also maybe NAS ought to have spotted this gesture being made.

  • Similar here. My five year old and I are living at my mums, sister and her boyfriend here also. The stress at the moment is due to not having our own space and feeling terrible as my child is determined to damage the house and everything in it. I know it's going to be a case of trying to pinpoint his problem/s and help him overcome them it's just not my house and I am struggling to replace everything broken/ruined. We will get there in the end.  Hope you will find things get easier. Your mind must be swimming a little at the moment.
