    Wow that is a lot. Your poor little one or not so little one. My son is 6. He has autism & hydrocephalus. He's the sweetest little boy.

    My 12 year old son is on the autism spectrum. He has come a long way and I am so proud of him.

    My granddaughter whom I parent much of the time, has Phelan-McDermid Syndrome.
    Basically a gene deletion in chromosome 22. A lot of her symptoms mimic autism.
    Her intelligence is quite affected. Depending on the day and what's going on etc. etc.
    She's between about 3 & 7. She turns 11 next week.
    Sent you a friend request.

    I have 4 children. My 13 year old son has aspergers two of my other children are on the spectrum but to a low degree, my oldest son now works with children with special needs and aspergers so it effects everyone in the family!

    I am very proud of all my children they work hard to overcome their fears and enjoy life!
