[quote=Anonymous] <<<Most experts agree that one of the most important keys to unlocking a child on the spectrum's potential is speech and language therapy-the more the better. So, yes with intensive ST both those with MERLD and those with ASD can often improve substantially. I think if you stop focusing on the labels and pay attention to the presentation many kids with MERLD label are getting the same accomodations and intervention as those with ASD labels and yes the prognosis can be quite good for both groups. >>> Is the treatment the same? IE - how do you get a kid with merld to significantly improve his ability to communicate (ie practical language). Is it through ABA?[/quote]
