Hi my little monkey was diagnosed on Thursday with asd.
He's 2 years 8 months it was a shock to be told our instincts were right so soon.
He currently goes to a pre 3 speech class and we are doing the hanen course and he's at a specail nursery 3 days aweek.
We have been told he is going to get an occupational theripist to help him with his behaviors, I was wondering how to explain autism to family members that seem to not understand that he is different, they assume he will start talking soon and not need help.
And if any one has any tips on helping my little monkey to be able to communicate or how to handle aggression that would be helpful.
