Has anyone used colored gel filters on exterior lights for Light It Up Blue? I have the opportunity to light up the Court House in my town and I could use some advice. I'm supposed to talk to the maintenance guy tomorrow and get more specs on the type of bulb (I believe it's halogen, which poses a problem with extreme heat), the size of the light fixtures, how we can attach the filters, etc. But if anyone has this experience, I'll sure listen!
Thanks!
Our 5 year old struggled at his cousin's birthday party, that he asked to attend for a week. He seemed overstimulated. Sensory items only helped a little. I tried to offer him a break but he said no.He wanted to be there. He struggles the most in this type of situation. He understands a lot, and is very aware. We like to help him meet his needs in socially acceptable ways as we learned at therapy. A woman from my sister's church said "Is he Autistic or does he have Down Syndrome? We do not like… read more
This is so true. I also often answer by saying that he gets excited etc. It is hard to believe that an adult would behave that way. It did not come across as well meaning.
Has anyone ever heard of this or have any experience with it? My mother in law came across this new story and passed it along to me this morning...

Moving to the area. Can anyone recommend a school or pediatrician?
My son knows he has some problems. He was moved to a school that has a BD program. He wants to get better. He wants his brain to be normal. He feels alone a lot and needs to know he's not the only kid going through this. Are there any DVDs out there for him to watch to help him?
Wow you seen them in person! That's great!! I wish I could afford it. Maybe if they go on tour one day and come to west Virginia lol
We are considering a move to Delray Beach/Boca area in Florida. Does anyone have recommendations for schools (public or private) for son with ASD and ADHD? He is high functioning. Would need info about middle schools and high schools as we would be looking to move when he is in 6th grade. Thanks in advance!
@A MyAutismTeam Member my opologies for the late response... I choose against Florida due to the grades of their regular school system. You see my son Aidan with ASD has a twin brother non-ASD. The… read more
Hi Everyone! Has anyone in GA, especially Northeast GA had any parent ABA training? Any suggestions? Thank you so much! I am not having any luck in finding an ABA provider near us (willing to drive 1 hour)...considering getting trained myself!
Thanks Lucy! I will check out the link.
Aba did not work for us so we use RDI. Www.rdiconnect.com.
