DS went to The Floortime Center for years. We saw a profound difference.

For all you know he may not be Aspergers but have other issues. At the age of three, the brain is totally malleable and you can be the person to make significant changes in your child. Assume there is room for great growth and change and charge full speed ahead with as much floor time as possible.[/quote]

15:39. We tried Floortime when DS was first diagnosed.  Did nothing so we stopped.  Worth trying though...  The thing that helped DS most was getting an IEP in prek when he got the AS diagnosis.  DS gets PT, OT, speech, social skills, etc all at school and we stopped private OT.  DS is doing great according to his teachers, academically and socially;  has friends and plays with them during recess and free time.  Completely a full member and participant in the classroom.  I really believe getting him supports when he first started school prevented the anxiety, social problems and behavior issues that can appear with an ASD diagnosis.[/quote]
