Lynn has published 5 books and particularly enjoys working with young people to enable their voices to be heard in their educational support. Lynn delivers training to a wide range of settings, including schools, charities and parent groups.
Lynn's new book is called, 'All about Autism' and are available to buy www.routledge.co.ukIn this episode, Lynn explains what Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) means and how this might show in a child's behaviour. She shares practical ideas to support practitioners supporting children and young people.
You can find Lynn on Facebook, Twitter (X), and on LinkedIn, and on the website, www.reachoutasc.com.
Lynn recommends the PANDA approach. More information about this can be found on the PDA Society website.
She also recommends several books on the topic of PDA:
- Collaborative Approaches to Learning for Pupils with PDA by Ruth Fidler and Phil Christie
- The Teacher's Introduction to Pathological Demand Avoidance: Essential Strategies for the Classroom by Clare Truman
Lynn shares 3 tips in this episode:
- Really assess what is working for a child, and do some really clear observations, without assuming you know what is going on. Talk to the child and let them communicate with you about what it's like for them.
- Have a 1,2,3 approach.
- Learn some new language, how to phrase things without using demand language.
