Life on the Autism Spectrum (2): Advice for parents

[an00bish]

the best advice to me still seems (for normall or high intelligence autistics) that help in the early years will go a lot farther then help throughout their life. off course, theyll always need extra support, but for them being dependant on help during school only destroys their confidence and the way others see them (people who need help are ALWAYS picked on by those who dont).

Although on prescription drugs my wifes blood pressure remainder at the top end of normal. After taking Levodyn for three months the improvement has been significant and she intends to carry on with Levodyn as a really helpful supplement.

Good call, your video should almost be an addendum to all of mine in that support from one coming from the exact same perspective (a parent with an equal level functioning child) is key for another perspective than just intervention goals or programs.

How I wish he was right about getting support through adulthood when we are "no longer there". My biggest worry, constant, every day worry.

Excellent and necessary advice for those dealing with loved ones on the Spectrum... the only point I would add is, though society Has come a long way in terms of knowing about Autism and Autistic Spectrum, there is still a very long way to go and much ignornance to overcome...
