Angelina E. McHolm, Charles E. Cunninghamm, Melanie K. Vanier Helping Your Child With Selective Mutism: Practical Steps to Overcome a Fear of Speaking
Often described as "social phobia's cousin" and misdiagnosed as autism, selective mutism is a debilitating fear of speaking in some situations experienced by some children. The disorder usually presents in children before the age of five, but it may not be recognized until the child starts school. When requested to speak, children with selective mutism often look down, blush, or otherwise express anxiety that disrupts their engagement with people and activities. This book is for parents and offers a broad overview of the condition, details a plan to coordinate professional treatment of your child's disorder, and explains steps to encourage your child to speak comfortably in school and in his or her peer group. All of the book's strategies employ a gradual, "stepladder" approach. The techniques gently encourage children to speak more, while at the same time helping them feel safe and supported.
