Anyone Having Difficulty With Their Child's School Regarding Autism IEP Eligibility And Suspensions?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

My son was not diagnosed with ASD until he was 11, he is now almost 13. Prior to that he was diagnosed with ADHD and ODD. After a reevaluation this summer it was determined he has Asperger's and ADHD. He has always had difficulty with aggression, but some of the more obvious ASD behaviors have increased since starting puberty. (More perseveration, vocal stimming, tantrums, threats, entering others personal space). The school has refused to acknowledge that his behaviors are due to Autism… read more

How do u know if your child needs ABA?

It’s usually the recommendation of the Dr who diagnosed. If it’s something you’re considering then you’d have an evaluation done just like with other services like speech and OT

Education Problems/Expulsion Or Suspension
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

I need some advice. My son with autism is 12 years old. He has had some issues at school this year (he is in a self contained one on one classroom with all other autistic kids). He has had several explosive episodes where he as hit staff and destroyed the room (threw things on the floor, etc).

With that being said, there is a limit of 10… read more

Does Anyone Know Where We Can Obtain Funding For Developing A Program For Young ASD Adults (age 21+) ?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

My daughter and 2 of her classmates will soon "age-out" of our state's education program for special needs children. They have "behaviors" that will prevent them from obtaining and keeping a job. There are also no affordable facilities or programs for young adults in our area. As a group we would like to develop a program similar to the one they have at school but lack the funds. I've researched online but was only shown sites to obtain funding for chartering a school which is not what we… read more

My Daughter Is 12y.o And We Have Not Been Able To Toilet Train Her, Any Sugestions To Help?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

Daughter will not use the toilet,she will sit there (no results). We have tried bribes(toys, candy, videos)panties, pullups, setting her potty chair in the living room, taking her every hour, but nothing seems to work. she doesn't seem to care that she's wet and she will wait and go in her diaper. Any sugestions?
