  • awww he is sooo sweet!! you seem like a very loving mother. i have a 5 1/2 year old who is autistic, i know how difficult it can be. never let go of your faith, God works miracles everyday.

  • what I know about autism I can fit on a pencil tip, but it seems to me that awesome jungle gym is very beneficial for him!

  • love this video..reminds me of my son age 5 with autism non verbal too.. i wanna share this to my wife.. God bless ^ ^ this video gives hope to alot of parents out there..

  • I want that playhouse

  • have you heard of TEACCH ?

  • This was like watching my own son. No one will be straight forward with me about how severe they think his autism might be. He is completely non-verbal, and 4 years old as well. Thank you for sharing!!

  • I am in the state of Texas and here unfortunately the state does NOT cover it! Makes it very difficult to give him ALL the help he needs!! We can only do so much right now. You are SOOO lucky that the state of CT pays!!! I might be moving to CA so maybe will be luckier with this there! Thanks for the tips!! :)

  • Yes he is on a caseine free/gluten free diet!! He hasn't had caseine for a VERY long time. But the gluten free diet we started on October 7th!! Not sure if it is working for him or not!! But I also love my little boy to death and don't want to change him either! He is precious! I Just want him to be ok and be able to function! That is all! :)

  • have you tried him on a milk and wheat free diet? I know that has made leaps and bounds for my little boy, there are lots of recipes that can be made and if u haven't seen the "sonrise" program check out their vids on you tube they are very helpful. good luck to you and I know that I would never change a thing about my son I love him so much he is worth everything to me.

  • Yes he is in pre-school, a little ABA but not much because it is paid for out of pocket... and OT/Speech therapy!! So he is REALLLLLLLLY busy but it is soooo worth it!! We are starting to see progress!! His verbalization is starting to happen. Very slowly but at least its something!! :) I have my ups and downs with all of this but t rying to stay positive for the most part! Dylan will be 4 in December!!! I hope he won't always need assistance but if he does I will do what I need to do for him!!

  • @proudmamaoflittleboy omg what do you mean u pay for aba out of pocket?????? what state do u live in?

    im from ct and the school system is made to pay for aba ot/pt and anyother therapies, does he have an iep for school? do u have a birth23 provider? that comes and works with him? also the state pays for diapers too after the age of 3, since he has low muscle tone we got a special needs stroller too and they are working on a tricycle for him.

  • I worry that he will never live a normal life. But I can at least hope! His receptive skills I feel are REALLY there for the most part! But the speech is soo delayed!! Sometimes I feel like he is the only autistic child around here. Every other child I have seen at the park is typical and it can be so hard!! But I have to keep telling myself not to get discouraged! I LOVE my little guy to death and just want him to live a normal life soo badly!! He is my precious angel though and so sweet!

  • @proudmamaoflittleboy dont worry he will always do better and make goals we as parents just have to realize that our goals for them have to change:) is your son in any special therapies? I do think about those same things, all the time, i do know my son with always need some sort of assistance. how old is he?

  • Hi there....I also have an autistic son who will be 4 in December!! His hearing is fine and his understanding is there but he also doesn't respond sometimes to his name called or follow instructions. He has made a lot of progress since last year with the help of pre-school, OT, some behavioral therapy( not as much as I would like) and speech therapy, but still lots of issues. He signs help and says "H" sometimes. and sometimes points to himself for me. He does pretty good signing.

  • Who said "low functioning" and low compared to what? He seems like a very capable little guy with the proper invention. <3

  • @Warriormom4two well Thayden is low funtioning compared to most other autistic children I know, he is the only child in his school with a para and and intensive program, he has stayed at the same lvls for almost 4yrs now, we have faith that one day everthing will just click for him and all the hard work will pay off!! :)

  • @AylahMay I'm sure it will. =)

  • I want to hug every little boy and girl, AND parent who loves and lives for their child with autism. My son is my main reason for living, he gives me so much hope.

  • beautiful little boy you have, reminds me so much of my boy <3

  • He is very lovable. There is intervention you can start before the age of six which can cure some of these children. It is to do with vitamins. Please contact me for more information.

  • Would love to know which vitamins.......mine is on some but maybe not enough!

  • He is so cute! I can tell how much potienial he has to speak more. He seems to hear you at times but just ignores you lol because he is having fun doing his thing in his own world. He is really young. Is he in a good school or in ABA? If you don't mind me asking. I'm curious. I wish Logan was 3-4 again so we would know how to help him and maybe he'd be making larger strides like his younger sister. N E ways, keep up the prompting for speech etc!! It helps SO much--- Thayden's at a crucial age
