Hey ladies can I ask for some feed back on my website. I am trying to explain autism and behaviors to my dad. I get comments from him like how do you distinguish between autism and behavior. Which I guess is my fault because I tried to do that. When in reality it all goes hand in hand. If you can be kind please leave some feed back HERE

Hey, all -

Does anyone live in PA, in either Pottsville, Reading, Allentown...or anywhere in or around those areas? I need to know what sort of services (medical/therapeutic and educational) are available for my boys.

I have an 8 YO with Aspergers, a very typical 5 YO and a 3.5 YO who's just been diagnosed PDD-NOS with Semantic-Pragmatic Disorder.

Thank you!

Hi everyone! Im the mom of a 9 yr old girl who diagnosed with Aspergers in May 09, previously having dx of sensory processing disorder, sensory modulation dysfunction, developmental dyspraxia, and auditory processing disorder. She had been homeschooled until this past January, but we decided to put her in school. She is mainstreamed and has no services or an aid, currently. She has done well and is pretty happy. She is currently being tested by the school, and her IEP is August 13th. We think she has an expressive language disorder, but it is not confirmed.

Our 6 yr old has been tested for ADHD and was in the 94th percentile at 5 1/2, just under clinical diagnosis. She is homeschooled and it works very well for us.

My husband is an undiagnosed Aspie.

I am so enjoying reading about the autism spectrum, and my relationships with my husband and with my daughter have grown SO much. I am glad to have found this group, too, I need all the support I can get!

I started blogging recently, focusing primarily on my conversations with my daughter with Aspergers. My blog is at http://pursuingharmony.blogspot.com
