Once Ethan turns twenty-two, he will fall off the \"Disability Cliff.\" By aging out of the school system, he'll lose access to most social, educational, and vocational resources. The catch is this: These resources, limited as they may be, have trained Ethan in skills for jobs that don't exist and a life he can't have.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHere, McGovern expands on her #1 New York Times piece, \"Looking into the Future for a Child with Autism,\" a future that often appears grim, with statistics like an 85 percent unemployment rate for people with ID. McGovern spent a year traveling the country and looking at the options for work and housing--and to her surprise discovered reasons to be optimistic. She asks the tough questions: What should parents prioritize as they ready their children for adulthood? How do we redefine success for our children? How can we sustain a hopeful attitude while navigating one obstacle after another?\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAs Ethan makes his way into the world, McGovern also looks into the hardest question of all: How can we ensure an independent future when we're gone? Hard Landings will serve as a renewed beacon of hope for parents who want to ensure the fullest life possible for their child's future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780525539056\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.3 x 6.9 x 1.2 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AVERY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50234431275312,"sku":"Trans_9780525539056","price":825.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/81IIU_Yt1-L.jpg?v=1761032330","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/hard-landings-looking-into-the-future-for-a-child-with-autism","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
