I came across these radio programmes about Social Thinking, there are other radio shows on other subjects too. It's a great resource!

PS! Never got to really chat in Chicago!
Too big. Sad

I was thinking we never did get to chat properly! It was so busy! So much to see! Did you have a good time? We had a great time, learned lots!

Ok - I think I've figured out DS's exact problem having listened to the second one. I've always struggled to get people to understand what I mean when I say his social skills are poor. It's. OT his language it's his social thinking. Now - what to do about it? Moondog - you going to cover social thinking on your day?

We've been using social thinking concepts and books with a number if our clients and have seen some amazing progress. There is very limited research on social thinking at present. Michelle Garcia winner will be in the UK week after next, where she will be training nearly 100 professionals and parents so hopefully we will have more people in the UK familiar with the approach.
