Abstract
Children with Autism Spectrum (ASD) Disorders are highly vulnerable and constitute significant burdens on the families, schools and the global economy. Developing resilience in children with autism spectrum disorders is a major challenge to both teachers and parents. This article discusses the roles of the family in building resilience among children with ASD. Firstly, the article explored the roles of parents in developing resilience in children with ASD. Secondly, the roles of siblings in developing resilience in children with ASD were examined. Thirdly, the roles of family socio-economic/cultural contexts in developing resilience in children with ASD were investigated. Finally, we discussed researches on best practices for resilience in children with ASD and directions for educational practices and future research.
