[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about those families with imperceptibly autistic boys who flat out cannot afford the $200 - $300 a week out of pocket for speech, OT, social skills and a nutritionist and supplements? 52 weeks a year, year after year? They can't afford, no matter what, it because Dad's low-level IT job and mom's admin. job won't cover that. Do they love their boys a little less, do you think? [/quote] My DS is more than mildly affected and although i DO have the means for this, I wont pay for out-of-pocket, private therapy. DS gets services at school with his IEP. After that, he gets to be a kid at home with his siblings. PLUS, if you really want your DS to have this kind of therapy but can't afford it, read a book or two and start doing things with your child on your own. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to do therapy with your kid. It's just interaction...with play, with words, with direction.[/quote]
