What I have read, some of the symptoms of Autism is lack of confidence, self esteem…
I want to buy a book on Austism with information like what is autism exactly, what to expect, what are the treatments available and parenting tips for parents. And also one that is uplifting.
Does any body know how long it take for a child to be tested for autism. I Been waiting for five month’s now.My son is three year old. I call Regional Center all the time but they don’t call back and my son Dr talk to them to all they say is to be patint.What should I do.
My son does taekwondo(3x’s a week), soccer(spring&fall)), tball(summer), basketball(winter). We were thinking about boy scouts for him. but we’re concerned it’s too much stimiulation.
How much is too much for a 9 year old boy on the autism spectrum?
My two year old is getting evaluated for autism and I want to know what to expect. He is already in speech therapy. His speech therapist said she sees no signs of autism but I still want him tested no matter what anyone says.
I am researching autism in children under 3 right now. My friend and I have been discussing my son. We believe, my son is showing signs of autism. My friend said he has autistic children in his family and those children have big heads. Like rounder in the back of the head.
Does anyone know if this is typical in autism?
I am wondering what works for others as far as behavior strategies, systems, plans etc. My son is six years old with several diagnoses including adhd, bipolar, and high functioning autism. His behavior is a major issue. We have tried time outs, reward systems where he got stickers and then a reward at the end of the week or day, 123 magic, and more with no success. Any ideas?
I’m doing some medical research on autism in babies and children up to 2/3years, and i wondered what kind of doctor would specialize in diagnosing this in children, and what kind of tests they would generally run. I initially thought neurologists, but I’m still not really sure.
Is it also possible that there could be a physical cause for autism, such as something to do with the brain or anything like that?
Thanks!
I know it doesn’t help get rid of the autism but i know there is one out there to help with social and behavior.
We’re in San Jose, by Valley Fair, and we teach social skills to children and adults with autism spectrum disorder. We would also like to find employees who want to take advantage of Yahoo!’s donation-matching policy!
