His school provides bare minimum with therapy. Our kids (only) were once on Medicaid and it seemed to provide pretty decent therapy throughout the week, however, with a pay bump at my job, and my wife now going back to work, we are just over the threshold for Medicaid. Private therapy is something that I know is worth it but again cannot simply afford it. Meanwhile our son has gone on 25min tangents in his classroom to the point where the teachers are growing intolerant. What are options for us… read more

I was a shy kid growing up, but now I'm starting to pay attention to my speech and noticing idiosyncratic speech, and it really bothers me.

My son is 7 not potty trained yet. Me and my wife live in California. A treacher suggested we send my son to a place out of state in Virginia to help him more. This would just crush me. I think I would try medication and other therapy here before I even attempted that. What is everyone's opinion on what to do? Son says only a handful of words. Thanks all in advance.

🤔When all meds., therapies, etc. fails... what is the next alternative. I know this is gunna stir up a lot of talk. But☝🏼, I wanna know everyone’s honest opinion on medical marijuana.

Hi,

I'm looking for an eye doctor in the Houston area to give me a second opinion on his prescription. Currently we go to U of H to have his eyes checked, and they do a great job, but I'd like to make sure it's the correct prescription since my son is not able to tell me. I'm willing to travel to Austin or San Antonio as well. I'm having a hard time finding an eye doctor willing to see an autistic child.

Thanks for your help!!
