I have an idea to start a school/center for kids and adults that are non-verbal or struggle to communicate and are NOT getting the academic rigor that they so deserve. What do you think
It would be for a students or adults that need a way to express themselves that traditional schools do not usually allow them or expect them to be able to do so
I’m at the beginning stages of my business venture so I would need some students to see if I can ignite the creativity. Ideas include: art, music,… read more
Email me: (Email address can only be seen by the question and answer creators) if you are interested in seeing if I can ignite the spark that already exists in your child!
We are in need of a loving person to spend time with our daughter on a regular basis (Mon - Fri) sometimes weekends. Pays $8 an hour. She's a sweetheart, but, I am sick. Thanks!
My son is also going on 24 yrs. and is high functioning. Does your daughter use the internet or know how to text? Maybe they can be pen pals and share interests. 😊
I'm am looking to relocate to the Nashville "area." I'm probably going to end up in Dickson Co, but don't mind to drive into Nashville or Franklin for services. I'm looking for suggestions for medical care across the board. I'll need to set my son up with a new pediatrician, OT, SLP, and hopefully ABA. Any suggestions on where to get these services would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Oddly enough the school district by God had better get you some services. You need to know 504, IDEA,ADA,ADAA. GOOGLE GEBSER LETTER

My 6 year old daughter was assessed by a psychiatrist as having characteristics at the age of 3.5. She was labeled as being developmentally delayed and labeled as pdd-nos.

The test was not administered in the best environment in that she sat in a car seat in traffic for 2 hours. The developmental pediatrician… read more
Yes, I would definitely fight to keep the eligibility through the school. In my experience having it will open the gate for services depending in the state you live in. Check your state's autism… read more

I have been searching for resources to get help for my daughter for 3 months to no avail. She has Medicaid and apparently there is a shortage of providers. Can you provide any insight or guidance?
My son has been doing a few things lately that are unusual for him and because of this I'm getting a little concerned. He's not on any medication except for Melatoin which he takes 6 mgs of at night. He has asthma but no other heath issues.
The other day we were standing in line at the store and he just fell down for no apparent reason,like he had tripped over something but he hadn't. And then I was getting him out of his booster seat in the car and he was just starring into space, he has… read more
Glad to hear!
