Online social skills programmes?

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

  • I agree, I am worried why the Mods haven't intercepted this. Lesleyjoan has posted a questionnaire link that asks for email contact addresses and proposes arranging meetings with children on the spectrum. That surely contravenes the forum rules.

    The questionnaire isn't research or commercial, apparently, so what is it?

    Whereas on another thread someone simply asking if other parents have a similar problem as their child, with no hint of any other motive, has been reprimanded for using the site for research.
