Online social skills programmes?

lesleyjoan

Hi,

I am a teacher, specialist mentor and mother of a 26 year old son who has aspergers. I am very interested in finding out the views of parents and carers of children and young people aged 5 - 12 who have an autistic spectrum condition with regard to online live social skills programmes. I know that my own son would have benefitted from something like this.  I am applying for grant funding to investigate the possibilities of a pilot study and would very much value the opinions and views of the community here.

If anyone is interested in participating a quick online survey then here is a  link -

I hope that this is ok to post? Any advice where I can gather opinion would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Parents

  • Question 20 asks if respoondents want their child to participate in a forum you are proposing, and question 21 asks for email contact details. While some of the questions ask about adult attitudes some are about the children's feelings.

    You have to consider that someone could elicit contact with minors through an arrangement such as this questionnaire proposes.

    You are asking people to trust you, as a complete stranger with information about their child, and how to set up contact with the child. Whatrever your intentions you need to give the implications more thought.

    It isn't about me being aggressive. It is about you being responsible and understanding the legal guidelines about questionnaires involving children.
