I would live to hear from others who have finished and already have the dog or going through the process.

Recently noticed my son has bags under his eyes. He was tested 6months ago for allergies and was told he does not. He's verbal but to a certain extent. Not sure what could be causing the bags. Anyone else have the same problem with their toddlers eyes?

I found one but kids have to be between 2-7 to get on a 2yr wait list. Jake is now 10 and doesn't qualify for their program. I am willing to travel some, but it would be difficult for Jake to go too far for too long. Any suggestions????

Hi, I have a son who is over 5 years old and has autism who is still in diapers
Over the past 3-4 months, he's been exhibiting some changes in behavior when it comes to diaper changes. It started with him refusing to acknowledge when he had pooped in his diaper.

I need recommendations, please. A Judge just recently changed the custody arrangements for my son with autism pretty drastically. He is very attached to me. I had him 70% of the time...him going no more than 3 days without seeing me. She changed the schedule to 50-50, one week on, one week off. This is too much change for him. This is a temporary schedule change. The judge doesn't understand that "just" temporarily doesn't work for kids on the spectrum. I'm looking for any articles, information… read more
