I'm wondering if my child constantly needing oral stimulation can be related to her ASD? I didn't get a straight answer when I asked the doctor about it. Not sure if it's Pica since it's not necessarily dirt, paint chips, drywall, etc. it's more like paper, cardboard, plastic, hair, etc. She's constantly chewing on anything and everything and sometimes consumes these things.
My son still at the age of 11 has a strong sensory seeking need to put things in his mouth. He uses a chewy daily & while it helps lessen him putting random things in his mouth, he still thinks it’s… read more

Hello, hope all is well with everyone. I was wondering if anyone here has gone through the process to become the qualified caregiver through IHSS for a child with autism? Also, has anyone qualified for “Protective Supervision" of children with special needs? The americanaadvocacygroup.com, AAG, claims they can assist at every stage of this process. Does anyone know if they are legit?
Hi yes, I’m my oldest daughter’s caregiver. I get paid to take care of her.
I am interested in signing up my daughter for swimming lessons. She loves the water and I notice that she tries to float on her own, but I am not sure If she is capable of succeeding in that due to her lack of listening skills.

How do you explain to your 8yr that his baby brother has autism, and that he can’t be mean to him when he doesn’t listen or destroys his stuff. We haven’t started ABA therapy yet, and it’s a recent diagnosis so we’re all adjusting to this new life style for our little guy.
Thank you guys for the help! And the amazing advice! I will probably have a ton more questions so I hope I’m not bothering anyone with all of them!
