How Can I Encourage My 5 Year Old To Keep His Hands Out Of His Mouth?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

My 5 year old used to often put his hands in his mouth, mostly in new situations or when he was asked to do something challenging I think. But about 2 months ago, he started doing it all the time, regardless of the situation. His classmates don't want to be around him. His teacher is always telling him to wash his hands or put hand sanitizer on them. Any advice would be much appreciated.

4 Years Old Boy Humping Pillows And Gets Erection. Is This Normal?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have 4 years old under the spectrum. Since he was two years old he is humping pillows whenever the opportunity comes a home. He does not do such thing at daycare, but whenever he comes home from daycare, he eats and then start humping pillow on the bed. I saw he has erection. Is this normal?. Usually he does that for over 30 minutes. I do really need to know if anybody saw something like this in the past.

School Issues.....
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

Has anyone ever filed a complaint with their state's board of education because the district did not resolve the issue? My issue is my son's school has not had a speech therapist on staff all year. I found out the one from last year is still in the district but in a different position...... Did the issue get resolved after this? Was your child treated differently at school after and during complaint process?

Social Skills Therapy
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

I don't know where to get social skills therapy. I moved to a town that has money and was supposed to have a good special ed department and it's awful. They just keep wanting to ship him off to residential. He issues with all of the changes we had during the pandemic and immediately after between schools and being forced to move by the old landlord because she was not a nice person. Lol she bought my apartment house and wanted us out so she could renovate and raise the rent. He had lived there… read more

Where To Find Adult Support Service Workers?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

This inquiry is for those who have adult sons or daughters receiving state aide. Our son was able to receive adult services before the age of 21. He attends an adult day program, but we also were able to receive funding for support services. We put in our budget for the moment 10 hours a week ( either all on one weekend day or splitting it up). This is different than respite services. Does anyone know any internet sites that advertise positions for suppport staff? We do not have anyone in mind… read more

Not sure what a "cadi waiver" is but our support broker has hooked us up with a vendor that is helping us to fill the support personel position.
