If you are very sure of the diagnosis of your child is ASD, go to epic center that focus on ASD. The lesson they cater to your child will be more suitable, and parents will be more understanding. Other special needs child might not be having similar problem, can understand why the other parent not able to accommodate. They don't understand. my personal experience and thoughts. Hope it help.

[quote=\"braverymom\"]Yup! I am currently dealing with 2 ASD and 1 NT boys. All active. It is very frustrating at times, but with the help from people around me, especially husband, that make life easier. In fact my NT boy is more difficult to deal with.

Braverymom,

Can I ask how old are your boys? Like you I have 3 kids. My eldest is diagnose with HF ASD @3.5 years old. My #2 is okay. My #3 who is coming to 1, I am monitoring closely. When did u discover your 2nd ASD show symptoms? My #3 is not even 1, I really can't tell if he has ASD or not. So far he is reaching all his milestones.

If no delay, should be ok I guess. There is 1 sign that you may want to look into. If he crawl first before sitting up at 6-7mths. Hardly have cooing sound. Then again, every child is different. you are already experienced mom, trust your intuition and relax.[/quote]Braverymom,

Thank you for sharing. I also trying hard to relax. So far I think he is okay. But can't help but wonder if my #3 is okay or not. I will keep monitoring. I agree we always must trust our intuition

Do u then have any idea which centre caters to kids who have trouble socializing with peers and/or trouble managing their emotions? My son speaks well but just can't express it out at that moment when he is emotional.

I think you are confusing ADHD with ASD? Attention Deficit Hyperative Disorder is different from Autism Sectrum Disorders. This thread is for those with ASD. There is another thread for ADHD.
