[quote="0_equals_true"]There was a "son-rise" fan woman on the brefiender training that I did. She didn't actually have an autistic child but had some how got involved with it. The NAS doesn't officially support or disapprove programs like this. But to be fair on the trainer she said that the in her personal opinion the "sun-rise" program puts a lot of pressure on parents to succeed and make them feel like their have failed if they don't get their child follow the program rigidly. I hadn’t actually heard of "son-rise" at the time, but I took the opportunity to mention the cure obsession and autism speaks, etc.[/quote]
