Parenting 101: Joint Attention and children with Autism

¨     Joint Attention is parenting 101, a basic skill for parents to develop with children with Autism as well as typically developing children.
¨     Engage with children. 
¨     Show interest in what they are interested in (within appropriate boundaries, i.e. don’t let your kids have pot parties let alone go with them).
