Angel Sense
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

Has anyone ever heard of Angel Sense? If u have have u tried it? My son will be starting classes in September with BCIU/early intervention and im worried how he will do and how teachers will treat him. It has a tracker if ur kid goes missing and u can even listen in on conversation wherever they are. It snaps to clothing or backpack. Wanted to know if its worth getting for the price and is it really reliable. Its rated 5 star's. Let me know what u guys think.

A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

My son was recently prescribed Cardura to help with transitioning to school and aggressive episodes. Have any parents used this drug for their kiddos and if so what side effects both positive or negative have you experienced. My son is non verbal so I am concerned that he might experience a side effect and not be able to express it. THANKS!
