As far as Im aware you cant "cure" ASD but for some kids you can get them to point of being very good at masking it. Our paed said their aim for all ASD kids (obviously barring the rare severely autistic ones) is to try and get them & the mainstream world to meet halfway. So that way they can still be who they are BUT they and us can cope with how they deal with the outside world. If that makes sense. He said it makes him sad when he see's ASD kids whose parents are trying to shove them into a "normal" mould so that society is accepting of them and they just cant do it, it just sets them back years and years. I mean, they arent going to change, its more behaviour modification.

Loulabelle - ah hiding. Rip hides in corners like between the recliners or in the corner where the door from the foyer opens into the dining room (its like a little alcove). Esp if he is upset.

Anywho I guess Id better get ready for work. Who works on a saturday morning, honestly lol
