It is a form of negligence called medical negligence, I believe, for a parent to not give meds. I’m shocked that DCFS won’t do anything! CPS? My ex is the same but my child is only on meds when she is… read more

A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

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?

If there are sleep issues, you should talk your doctor. Melatonin might help.

Where Can You Buy Toys Or Gagets That Satisfy The Urge To Tear Up Socks By Pulling All The Strings Out? Also, Where Do Autistic Teens Hang
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

My grandson puts himself to sleep by pulling on a sock with his mouth to start to untangle it until all of the threds are pulled out. What can I do to change this behavior.

Also, my 13-year-old grandson is home schooled and has no friends other than family and his puppy. Is there any kind of social activities he and others can attend? Are there any churches who may have Youth Meetings where kids can meet and greet, maybe dance and sing or play card and board games>
