[quote=Anonymous]I read the free excerpt on Amazon and this dude doesn't know what he's talking about with respect to ASD. He discredited himself when he said he could tell after 2 minutes that a diagnosed patient wasn't truly autistic because he laughed at a poop joke during pretend play. My ASD kid can engage in pretend play and laugh at fart jokes, too. However, without the early therapies to teach him the basic skills, he wouldn't be where he is now. I would not trust a generalist like this guy for an ASD diagnosis. [/quote]
