Again, thanks for all of the replies. I am reading them all again and can't believe how nice it is to not be alone. And to not be as horrible as I thought I was! Update on the school things- We had the meeting with the school system this past Weds. During the Summer, Ambi will stay in her special sc...

I appreciate all of ya'lls answers and advice. I'm horrid at doing replies when holding the 4 mo old, so I will get back to this tomorrow after the meeting with the home trainer and head start liasion chick, Can explain things a bit more clearly, too. Thank you guys!

Oh, eek, one more thing. I saw somewhere that AS children talk early. My girly spoke very late and has issues speaking properly now. She's very smart, but just has problems saying the words she needs. Basically, finding the words and pronouncing them. But she has all the AS behaviors that her diagno...

Hi, I'm trying very hard to figure out some things on my own. The local school system isn't much help, because as everyone knows, they mainstream AS/HFA kids and seem to think that the behaviors these children exhibit should be redirected or punished. I've been very annoyed with the Head Start latel...

Thanks for the info and the welcomes.

I know it sounds pretty stupid about the ADHD meds, but that's our choices. It's like AS isn't even considered a syndrome, or maybe I just need to start searching for doctors again.

Well, I'm off to ask 20 million questions in some other parts of the site!

As for the meds thing...I'm glad you mentioned it. Dad and me refuse to use meds on Ambi. We don't belive that she needs to be 'strung out' like many kids we've seen on adhd meds. That's all they prescribe here for AS and HFA. We think a better diet is more beneficial, even if it's not perfect as a ...

Her original ped said she wasn't autistic when we originally talked to him about EI, due to her being non-verbal. That was back when she was 2, now she is going to be 5 in april. His excuse ...
