Urgent Questionnaire!

Hi all, below I have made a questionnaire to ask you about a few questions concerning autism and how it affects young people’s lives for a survey of sorts. It would be very helpful if you could answer them with brutal honesty.

1: As a parent or carer of a child with autism, what are some difficulties your child can face when it comes to emotional expression and social communication? 

2: Do you feel as if there is an emotional barrier between you and the child, distancing you from each other through lack of communication?  

3: How does autism affect your child in terms of school life? 

4: Have you ever considered using interactive products as tools to develop your child’s emotional expression and communication?

5: Do you think your child would benefit from one? 

Thanks for taking the time to read through this.

    You are a busy person...but can I ask if your remit is to focus firstly on posts relating to children with ASD or parents struggling....

    i ask as on the autistic adult forum there are individuals struggling with employment, relationships (both abusive and non abusive) as well as suicide. Does the term high functioning mean that we are better equipped to deal with these?

    this is not a derogatory post but a curious one.
