Has anyone had any experience with their child with Asperger's Syndrome taking German in school? My older daughter took Spanish in high school (she also has Asperger's), but my son will be taking German and I am worried because it can be a very difficult language to learn.
You'd be surprised with Asperger Students and a foreign language. Usually they do very well.
I need help. My son is 18 months old. He just got over having E. coli.

My 7 year old son is having major problems with bowel movements and wiping. Apparently, he doesn't feel that he has to go all the time. There are times where he will get that feeling and go, but, its not consistent at all. He also has issues with wiping. There are times where since he doesn't always get that feeling to go, he'll have some stuck and it ends up in his underwear. Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks in advance!

I feel 5 month is a very long time given his age and that i feel… read more

What is the best GPS for a 5 yr old boy? My son tends to wander off also, also likes to run away. Concern that he will run off at school especially in the morning that they wait on the office with door opened. The schol it that secured. I warned tha teachers about this.
IONKIDS has a watch and tag to place on the child and a system that warns you when they are 1 to 700+ fet away and actually tracks the direction in which they are headed
With my son finally have a diagnosis of Autism what therapy can we request from the school distict? He gets 15 minutes of speech a week (not enough at all). We are going to request that he gets more speech therapy each week. We are worried about his ticks that he has as well. What therapy could we get him in to help with the ticks that he has?
