Thanks for posting this excellent, important talk! I love Daniel Siegel's work, and this talk is a great overview. I'd love to hear him talk further about whether any schools are dealing with the other three R's, and what parents can do to help their children develop more mindsight.

before reading Dr. Siegel's micro-bio, just watch or listen to this TEDx presentation. Though about our 6 year old son and how our family is living on the Autism Spectrum.

Enjoyed taking in the AUDIO initial then the VISUAL of this TEDx video. Try simply listening without watching Dr. Siegel. Then, when he asks us to watch to reflect on our reaction to him, then look at the video screen. Sharing on EnjoyHi5Autism micro-blogs.

If you need this oresentation prescribed to you then it obviously doesnt apply to you. "Horses for courses"

Siegel articulated quite well alot of what I feel and think and further in the field of trying to break the cycle of dependency he is spot on.
