"So far, The most common advice from APD, DCF, and a very respected group of BCBA'S .....the sooner I find group homes, the better. #WTF"

Indeed. We've heard the same thing for our 6 year-old daughter. Pretty scary that that's so few places to go if the parents get too old to care for their kids and people are telling us to get ready for a waiting list that could be years long.

a waiting list, that when your child is diagnosed, you are told to call and place your child on "the list" and he/she may be called for care at the age of 18 or 21 .... so for us parents...its hold on...hold out..and get these kids as much care as you can

We're on a waiting list, 4 years in......so frustrating. I had a woman tell me yesterday that breast cancer was a walk in the park compared to #Autism
