My DS1 is 3 and i've been worried about his speech delay for some time.
Had hearing test and he is on the list for SALT.
Saw pediatrician today who said he is on the mild end of autistic spectrum.
I am in shock. We were hoping to home eductate but the pediatirican basically said it would be impossible and I would need the professionals to help.
I really don't want to send him to school as there is quite a bit of religious persecution in our local area and I feel he will be stigmatised and labelled.
Has anyone had any success home edding their ASD child and is it normal to be in such a state of shock?
