- More about The Educator's Experience of Pathological Demand Avoidance: An Illustrated Guide to Pathological Demand Avoidance and Learning
Laura Kerbey realized that traditional autism strategies were not effective for children with Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA), so she created a guide to help educators connect with and thrive with PDA students. The guide includes an introduction to PDA, tailored advice on creating an autonomous and spontaneous environment, and entertaining anecdotes.

During her time teaching autistic children, Laura Kerbey had a profound realization that those with Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) were uniquely different from other children with autism. None of her previously tried and tested strategies for helping these children focus or learn seemed to work, and she often found herself wondering, "What am I doing wrong?" If you're feeling the same, this concise and easy-to-read guide is designed to provide you with all the knowledge you need, from one educator to another.
The guide begins with an introduction to PDA, explaining its characteristics and effects on individuals with autism. It then offers tailored advice on how to connect with your PDA student and create an autonomous, spontaneous environment that is personalized for both of you. This guide is intended to ensure that you and your PDA student thrive.
Illustrated by the popular Eliza Fricker and filled with entertaining anecdotes, including one about Jabba the Hut's poop, this go-to-guide contains everything you need to start implementing PDA-friendly learning practices. By understanding and adapting to your PDA student's unique needs, you can create a learning environment that fosters connection, engagement, and growth.
Whether you're a teacher, parent, or caregiver, this guide will empower you to better understand and support your PDA student. So, if you're ready to learn and make a positive impact on the lives of those with PDA, let's embark on this journey together!
