My Son has Autism

[HelenH79]

Hello, I'm new to the site and wondered if anyone else has a child with an ASD.

Welcome to Mumsnet.

There are plenty of us with DC with ASD over on the SN board. There is loads of information there and always a friendly face.

I have a 4 year old son with autism

welcome to mumsnet yes many of us on here on the sn forum as linked

my son is 4.9 has high functioning autism [HFA] also had delayed speech and abnormal speech sounds but has made huge leap in last few months and near on track with peers now

Hi!

Welcome to mumsnet. I recommend the special needs topics for specialist support and advice.

yes yes

My son has quite severe ASD and is 13 now.

have a look around the SN boards

welcome !

That's great thank you! I've had a look at the board and it's full of really interesting stuff.

My eldest is 5 and was diagnosed just over a year ago. He goes to a school out of area so I don't get to speak with other mum's in a simular position, so this is great!!
