Topic: Does anyone have an autistic child?
I have a teenage son, age 18 now, and I am raising him alone.
Far Northern regional is a good place to start. ARC of Butte Co.
is another. Speech Tharapy is necessary for the child. Best thing you can do is educate yourself about all froms of autism.
An offical diagnosis will be needed for getting as many services possible for him. Prayer will also help. He will need social skills. IEP in school will be a must! hope this will help. Big word here will be consistancy.
