Decarcerating Disability: Deinstitutionalization and Prison Abolition | Liat Ben-Moshe

Considering the current situation in DC, this book might be therapeutic right now. Especially for those of us who have children who are in this administration‘s cross-hairs. It sounds like it will have a lot of constructive and actionable information.

ncsufoxes Thanks for posting this. I‘ll have to track it down. I usually read a lot of books about disabilities (this book highlights an area I‘m concerned about, which makes me interested in reading more). #autismmom #neurodivergentkids 3mo

Reviewsbylola I was struggling with what to read next but you just made my choice easier. My 4 yo daughter was just diagnosed with ASD in December and parts of me are still very raw, mostly about what her future holds. It's definitely time to grab one of my books about autism off my TBR. I have read about 30% of In a Different Key but put it down because I was getting a little bored. I hope to get back to it at some point. 9y

britt_brooke Look Me in the Eye is such a great and interesting read. 9y

amywithbooks @Reviewsbylola it is hard to digest. My son was diagnosed last summer (he's 2). I've worked as a behavior analyst for kids with autism for years and never thought I would be on the receiving end of a diagnosis. Let me know if you ever need to talk/vent! 9y

Reviewsbylola Thank you. I felt a lot of relief to finally have an "answer" but it's scary to think about the future! 9y
