She has lot of antimony toxicity in her blood and very few good bacteria. Hmm this is interesting as I've been a tooth grinder for sometime now and my hairtest showed high antimony as well.  She is on mild TD-DMPS, i dont understand how is TD-DMPS mild? Which dose is this please? Has to be taken every 8 hours. glutathione,probiotics,prebiotics and nutritional supplements. Have any of the supplements that you give your daughter changed since the teeth grinding issue came up? Some patients react badly to glutathione and need milk thistle or something more gentle instead. Could you list what she is on and the doses please? " children with starving brains " has excellent supplement mineral levels for autistics. However the DAN! protocol is less effective than the AC one which i have been following for the past 3 months. Just because your child is non verbal doesn't mean the professionals have to pass her off as being unable to communicate. Non verbal communication does exist, the bruxism for example is communicating something to you. Are you on a b12 protocol? Some parents find that helps their kids to speak. For me it helped me find the words and remember what i was going to say (so i interrupted less) than pre b12.-- is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Yes. At school he spends most of his time either in the library or the computer lab. He is getting better at talking to people, but he says little to them at school, then comes home and spends time chatting to them. He has also just recently started using facebook. When he brings friends home they talk very little as they are too busy playing games.

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 The question for me is " Is your son happy? " Does he enjoy spending time in the library and computer lab? Is he satisfied with the social contact he has after school and online? Some children on the spectrum are perfectly happy with this level of interaction. They love their intellectual pursuits, and tend to avoid emotional relating. They enjoy interacting around their common interests or intellectual pursuits, and feel more comfortable relating online where they do not have to regulate the nonverbal pragmatics of face to face relating. In other words they often feel more comfortable with intellectual interaction, rather then emotional interaction. That's ok. As long as they learn to live and work along side of others, they will do just fine. Bill > > > >> Does anyone in this group live in Visalia Ca or somewhere nearby.

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 My son longs for someone to be a real friend to him. He had it once, but the boy moved away several years ago and we lost contact with him, they were exactly the same and were inseprable. He misses him terribly and I had tried to contact his family but I think they may moved again, they had moved about an hour away. They kept in contact for a couple of years, but they seem to disappeared now. He still stays that he is the only true friend he ever had, and its sad, he just wont let it go and move on. He seems happy most of the time, but I don't like for him to be online alot, I monitor it closely because in the past I have found him on some questionable sites and he looks for gaming cheat codes alot and we got a virus one time that wiped out our computer. I would actually prefer for him to have real life friends, and he would too, if he could only find someone he could realte to. He is very talented at drawing, and likes yugioh and dragons, and pokemon, but we have tried to discourage the pokemon, he gets too obsessed with it.

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Ben is happy with things the way they are. The other kids accept him as he is. He can work with people when he has to, so we don't worry too much about how he wants to organise his social life. He is spending more time with people as he gets older.

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Ben has always spent time looking for cheat codes. That is one reason we got him his own computer. He has a limit on how much time he can spend online. I check on where he is going online, but his mother has stopped doing so as she really doesn't want to know. She can't see the attraction of gaming. He knows if he gets caught going to porn sites he is in big trouble. He's told us not to worry as he knows how to surf the web without leaving tracks  Sometimes I think it would be somewhat comforting if he would take time to look for porn rather than always focusing on gaming.

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 a really excellent computer monitoring software is webwatcherdata.com. Not the cheapest out there, but very very effective and pretty much hack-proof by teenagers. You can approve all, nothing, or in-between, and also monitor texts, emails, and now they even have a cell phone version. I've used it for 7 years and can HIGHLY recommend it.My 9 year old is totally into Pokemon-- he can probably name all 400 of them. He loves Japanese Dragons too. This summer it's all things Wizards & Hogwarts.
