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

  • Hi everyone. This was what I wanted to say to lesleyjoan, but I decided against posting it. Enjoy.

    Hi lesleyjoan.

    OK, let me be as clear as I can about what I think, let's see if even you can get it.

    You made up a profile, and immediately posted a survey link. Clearly, you had the surveymonkey already set up. All of the information in the 'survey' is designed to raise interest in an unseen product. none of it would inform or support the development of such a product. I think that you're a snake oil seller - you've got something, and when you've promoted it, and gathered a database of interested people, you'll hit them with 'and all this for only £X a month'.

    Standard sales technique. Get 'em interested, get their details, allow them to talk themselves into wanting it, and then Wham!

    You have blatantly ignored rules 3 and 6 of the Community, and still can't see what the problem is?

    Really?

    This is a supportive community for people living with ASD, either with the condition, or living with someone with the condition. You are just a salesperson who is trying to make money out of desparate people. However, if you'd like to post a link on here to the free version of what you're offering, I'll be delighted to take it all back.

    I still think you're a fake. I base my opinion on your own words and attitudes.
