| Hi. I knew in advance that I would need a C-section due to placenta previa. Maybe since it was scheduled, I remember it as being quite easy. I wouldn't have necessarily opted for it if I didn't need it, but the fact that I knew I would not have a painful delivery did kind of ease my nervousness the ... |

| Hi. We started CPSE for my now 6 y/o son 3 years ago when he was your child's age. It's a long and gradual process, and your son is very young still. Just keep sticking with it and try not to worry if you don't see immediate results. Sometimes I would see no progress for months and then a spurt of p... |

| I saw her video too and it helped ease my mind a bit. My 6 y/o son is doing this so much now, I try to remember and understand that it is not a bad thing. It is just so strange when he goes around chanting snippets of conversations or scripts in the elevator or in public without any regard to who is... |

| That's interesting, thanks. And very helpful, because I really often find myself wondering how language progresses with age. I guess it happens very differently with ASD kids than with typical kids, where the language is pretty normal from a young age. |

| Thanks, that is interesting and I appreciate your input about your son. My son still can't introduce a topic in a more appropriate way, he will just blurt out the thought without knowing (or caring) how to word it. And yes, he doesn't have typical social goals at all, although he is friendly (more s... |
