One of the defining factors of Autism is that a child has Repetitive Behaviours, here at The Autism Treatment center of America we also see that not only can a child be repetitious but also "exclusive"...

How can I teach my 11-year-daughter on the autistic spectrum how to read, write, and talk? Ever since she was 2 years old, I have tried working with professionals of speech therapy, occupational therapy, music therapy, adapted PE, you name it- I have still not had a good success story to tell others. Throughout the yea...rs, I have given up much time and many things in my life to help my daughter. Even though I have given up on many of my dreams for myself and my own life, my dream now is for my daughter to be able to fulfill her own dreams and have the potential to do so.Read More

Wow, you're an amazing parent. You have been doing an excellent job and giving so much of yourself to help her. I felt (sometimes still do) like I've sacrificed so much, but why haven't I seen the fruit of my labour? It's not fair that my life and dreams must take a backseat so my child can be better. Doing Dialogues really relaly helps. It opens ... Read Moremy eyes that although I want what's best for my son, I still attach my expectations to his dream. Just like what Bears wrote in A Miracle of Love, he asked Robertito's mom "how would you feel if Robertito is still like this when he reaches adulthood?" I ask myself that all the time, and with the dialogue, comes acceptance without judgments. What is your daughter's dream? If she dreams to be an artist, would that be your dream too? If her dream is to cope with the world one day at a time, would that be yours too? I hope i'm not leading you, I just want to say that Accept that our kids are doing the best they can, and so are we. Praise her effort to read and yourself for trying to teach her.

What we believe about the people closest to us can determine how we act around them and the opportunities we offer them. This is particularly true with our children. It is easy to become complacent about how much we know our children...

I have the most incredible volunteer for my son's Son-Rise Program. Many of you at the Option Institute may already know her, Jeannie Reid. Jeannie is a beautiful person-inside and out, and has shared her unconditional love with our entire family. My son, Shane is always so happy to see her and they have the most wonderful time together. I am so deeply proud to call her my friend and have her guidance and love to help support and nurture my little boy.

When her son was diagnosed 3 years ago, Nicoleta found the symptoms of autism that her son exhibited to be devastating. She spent years looking for autism support networks and autism treatment programs for her son and was about to give up when she discovered the book ‘Son-Rise: The Miracle Continues’ – a potential cure... for autism. Listen to the amazing journey she took with her son, enabling him to become a happy, sociable 6 year old with 50 words and fully potty trained after just 3 weeks of The Son Rise Program.Read More

Maybe I am? :) Because I have worked with so many families and children over the years, I feel that I have a good sense of the different things you have to deal with and some of the thoughts that you maybe be thinking and feeling. As much as possible I want to be helpful with immediate things you can do and think to help you help your children. love to you Jen

William was diagnosed with autism 5 years ago. Although he had had substantial ABA treatment, he still had many symptoms of autism. He was non-verbal, made little eye contact, and spent a lot of time hand flapping and pacing. Now just four months, after coming to the Autism Treatment Center of America and implementing ...The Son-Rise Program with William, his mother reports that he has begun to speak, his eye contact is much improved, and his stimming behavior is rapidly decreasing. But most important there is now a meaningful connection between them that was never there before. His parents always believed he would recover from autism. Now they know how that will happen.Read More
