Communication

We, as people, are social beings. Our Cornelias are for sure. They are very interested in their social environment. And like ourselves they get a lot of joy when they are understood and people help them in what they want to achieve. But expressive communication is a challenge.

The behaviour that is shown in people with CdLS can be confusing but when understood can give you a wealth of information.
It can be another form of communication that can tell as much as words normally do.

How can we understand what they are trying to say? What does it mean? Can they learn to communicate in ways others can better understand? This session is about what we can do and what can be achieved in this field of communication.
