TIP of the week:

Monitor and chart your child's development. The first step to a parent-physician team approach is to provide your doctor with a thorough record of your child’s development. In order to present your observations and concerns to your physician, keeping accurate records on a continuous basis is essential for accurate diagnosis and early intervention treatment. Listing behaviors and traits of your child is essential for proper documentation. Monitoring your child’s development is nothing more than a daily system of tracking these symptoms and behaviors. (Excerpt from Diagnosis Autism: Now What?)
