hi fellow members;

[Guest guest]

hi all; I'm new here, just joined last wknd. I live in Canada. My

grandson , age 7-1/2 was diagnosed at age 5 with autism. His mom

Amy will be 27 at the end of this month, and his dad is 29. They tend

not to label them anymore as high or low functioning. However, I

think he might be high. He started talking a little at age 3, but

really picked up at age 5. He goes to school and is in a class with 9

other kids that have special needs.

He gets home from school and immediately strips down to his

underwear. He loves playing video games, watching movies, playing

with daddy, playing with nana's cat when he comes over. He is very

particular with his food, only 1 item on his plate. He loves his

milk. But his parents buy him too many sweets and candy all the

time.

Anyway, i want to read some more msgs; just thought I'd make a post.
