A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question đź’­

Help my ex wont give my son his meds on the weekends or vacation time he has him. so my son goes days without it and comes home more upset and violent with his sisters and me. I have try to talk to his father about making sure that he gets it but got told that he can give it to himself which the doctor says no because of where he is on the spectrum. I have tired talking to DFCS where I live and got told they cant do anything because I have the child most of the time. What else can I do because… read more

It is a form of negligence called medical negligence, I believe, for a parent to not give meds. I’m shocked that DCFS won’t do anything! CPS? My ex is the same but my child is only on meds when she is… read more

Eating Habits
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question đź’­

My son is almost three and nonverbal. He has not ate solid foods since he was one and a half. He only drinks from a bottle just milk but I do mix yogurts in them when I can get him to drink it. He also drinks PediaSure. His iron levels are good and he is healthy no problem with weight loss, sleep well and is active. I'm currently on a waiting list to get a diagnosis. He is fearful of anything coming near his mouth he doesn't put toys in his mouth, but he also doesn't allow us to brush his teeth… read more

How To Get Extra Help When Flying By Air With Someone With Autism (or Other "hidden Disability")
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question đź’­

My daughter just left with her class for a trip to Hawaii! I wish I would have known about the DPNA code when they were making reservations. Am I the last to know?

From the link below:

In 2008, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) introduced a new code, “DPNA”, which stands for “disabled passenger with intellectual or developmental disability needing assistance”. You can use this code to book flights for passengers with autism, down syndrome, and so on.

The code alerts airline… read more

Rolling On The Walls...
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question đź’­

How do you transition an 11 yo from rolling his whole body on the wall. He doesn't do this all the time just when he goes down the hallway. He loves it and sometimes he doesn't because he knows he's not supposed. Once he starts you can't stop him. He'll go back and forth a few times.

He is high functioning ASD, ADHD, Sensory seeker and behavior issues.

A MyAutismTeam Member

We did OT once and it was a very upsetting experience. He has stopped rolling on the walls...I'm not sure why he was doing it. Still it stopped for now. At the time I think we were very busy and… read more

Walking To School Alone At??
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question đź’­

My ds sees his friends walk to school and from school alone... he is very upset and literally sad that he can not do this. We started letting him walk the dog this summer up and down the street. Of course he goes way to far but always comes back and I am proud of him for that. This is one thing we do when he wont go out and only wants to watch tv. Also, when he is fighting with me. It's one way I can get away from him. There are those really bad days and it gives me a break and he comes… read more

DS is in elementary school (4th grade) and they don't have a program like that. It really bothers me to see kindergarten through 5th graders walking home on the roads. We've had issues where… read more
