The most important about autism is that they have a hearing 50% stronger than us, they hear ultrasound, for that reason they get along with dolphins. All mothers know that any strong sound will distrub them. They feel like they are in a war with us. This is a gift from the Soleris foundation to all of you. We have enough experience with Autistic children in CranioSacral intensives clinic with dolphins and with sound therapy. Help accept to live with us in our noisy world..

I think that instead of treating the symptons with a bunch of drugs, we better start to understand better the causes . The behaveour of some of the autistic people is just the upper top of the mountain ( in dutch, ijsberg).

I would not like to be a child in the USA. We have to think at the interest of the child , and not primarely the parents.

In some cases medication will be an anwer, but these are exeptional.

I could not stop thinking , when I saw the video, of lobotomie in

[romanovdb]

All they need is love.. Mr. money!

I am 53, I ate mercury and lead as a child a lot. I know drugs can help, but the key is WHOM is doing the "research" and do they get bribes, cars, new PC's etc from these companies? Follow the money honey these educators like to eat...

Dont make such ridiculously absolute judgement calls if you dont know what youre talking about, which you obviously dont.

[joannesz]

This sounds like they are using children like guinea pigs in an experimental laboratory. HORRENDOUS. PLEASE STOP THIS. LEAVE THIS KIDS ALONE. THEY NEED HUMAN BEINGS TO HELP THEM NOT DANGEROUS CHEMICALS

[ravenblack6]

They create these disorders with their vaccines...then offer you a solution by prescribing you more toxins to further damage brain function. Dispicable people promoting dispicable garbage..POISON.
