Insurance companies limit what therapists can do to help people with autism and Sarah knows the importance of teaching a social skill in the appropriate social context. She takes Sam and others to the mall, to the library, to the grocery store, and out to the dance clubs so that they can work on a social skill that they have been learning in all kinds of different social context situations.

This is a very informative and educational book on how to teach social thinking and social context to people with autism. Here is an excerpt from the book.
"You approach people in many different ways. Each way has a different social context that you need to be aware of. Context is so important and it is one of those unlearned social skills that people with autism do not just naturally pick up on. I have worked with Sam for a number of years trying to explain social context with him. While he is starting to get it a lot better than he had it before we still have a long ways to go before he is an expert in understanding social thinking or social context."
