Is There Anyone That Can Share How Guardianship Of Your Adult Child Has Worked Between The Mother And Father That Are Divorced.
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

My son's father currently has full Guardianship. I am currently going through a legal process to get back visitation and some parental rights. My son is not very verbal and not very capable of expressing himself. I am thinking it would had been better if I was awarded at least limited guardian to have at least visitation rights back in place.

Leander Vs RR School In Texas
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

We re planning to move to Austin TX and considering either Leander or RR school districts for our 3y.o. son with ASD. Does anyone know if either of them use a combination of play with ABA therapy? Our son responds much better when he is playing and having fun rather than working for any kind of reinforcer ( including edibles). Thanks!

A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone have an opinion on which one is better? I am exploring this for my 2 and half year old daughter.

A MyAutismTeam Member

We do a mix of home, center, and community outings sessions. I agree with the PP who talked about the importance of generalization.

A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

I should have written down the info but at the time we were in ABA therapy 4 hours a day & we were all so exhausted after therapy neither child was interested in camp. Now that my oldest is not in ABA therapy I think camp would be a good thing. We just moved here a few months ago & am having a hard time getting plugged into the special needs community here. Any responses would be greatly… read more

Power Of Attorney
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

Has anyone applied for Power of attorney over their autistic son?? My 19 year old (Asperger's syndrome ) son wants to be independent and in his own apartment. I have stipulations anyway I really believe I need to get power of attorney over him due to the fact that he's not capable in making decisions unless they pertain to a video game or anime... Where do I go to begin this process?? Am I being overprotective??

A MyAutismTeam Member

The major difference is that power of attorney needs to be granted by the other party and can be taken away from that party as I understand it. Also if an issue went to court for some reason the power… read more
