Guest guest Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 Thanks so much for your input in how to decorate my son's room. Many great ideas that are going to help my little one to communicate. I also have a BIG question. I live in a little town in the middle of nowhere in MT. I been trying to find resources for early intervention for my son and looks like no one has ever been trained to teach an autistic child in this state. That is the info I got from my family support Part C program advisor. I feel so lost with out knowing what to do, where to go to get trained and not even a slight hope that our little school can do or bring something to train and teach my son. I know that then I have to train my self but I have no idea in what field to get trained and where to go to do it. And I am confuse about ABA because some info on the internet told me that ABA can be really harmful for a mild autistic child like my son, because it can build anxiety and frustration, resulting in agression. My son can sit if you ask him, he will repeat words a lot if you ask him, he doesn't have tantrums at all, very aware and can read emotions, very loving and affectionate. He doesn't stim or have repetitive behaviors or rutines, he is very disorganized. His problem is his speech, he wont carry a conversation or speak in sentences. He has a voc. of about 150 words, mostly nouns. He just turned 3 and I don't know what to do, since the doctor didn't really wanted to have anything to do with my son after she said that he maybe autistic, she didn't gave me any info or guidence, she only told me to go with the Part C program and they would know what to do. Isn't that awful! and she is a Special Developmental Specialist. I'm here to ask for a little guidence if you can help, I'm desperate and I know many of you are profesionals who care about autistic children. Thank you. Gris.
