WPSU produced it’s first original program, the award-winning documentary, Autism: Time is Brain, focused on the importance of early diagnosis and intervention and the use of Applied Behavioral Analysis as critical to reaching the best outcomes for children with autism. Since then, we’ve interviewed such luminaries in the world of autism as Temple Grandin, probably the best-known and most accomplished autistic in the world. Our latest program deals with the impact of autism on the typically developing brothers and sisters of children with autism. To find out more about the range of grown-up responsibilities and challenges these siblings face, we visited with three families who are raising an autistic child, and talked with a grown sibling. We also talked with one of the nation’s leading experts on the siblings of children with autism, Dr. David Celiberti. This program examines the factors that influence the quality of the sibling relationship--typically the longest and most complicated relationship in the family—as well as the issues “typicals” face and what parents can do to help.
