I know lots of mums have experience with their autistic children of using lovass and so on. My ds1 is 4 and started school last week. He has been fine, but his teacher has already voiced concerns over how to get him to access the academic work because it's very hard to lead or motivate him.
He hasn't any interests as such bar supermarkets and mooches/fiddles a lot. He hasn't responded to reading(bar logos!) or numbers and his pro-noun reversal / echolalia get in the way of much meaningful communication. His fine motor skills are poor too. At home he has frequent melt downs and can be aggressive.
Would an aba programme help - is it appropriate for aspergers?
Also(?) my 24 mth ds2 appears nt in every way except he has the same pronoun reversal and echoes too - is this normal in an an nt child or should i be concerned?
Any advice gratefulll received - feel i've read so many books I can't think straight!
