[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We never accepted the autism diagnoses either. Best thing we ever did. Kept us far away from the autism industrial complex. [/quote] Good for you. We are currently getting hospital based services through insurance. I only do interventions that have clear end goals. We tried the gluten free dairy free diet for 2 months. No difference in our child. I am willing to try anything for up to a month. If there's no clear, tangible benefit we don't do it. Our child is doing very well for someone at their level of functioning. Frankly many parents view autism or SN as a way to get attention and sympathy. Sometimes their kids would be better off unlabeled but getting the help they need. Some autistic kids benefit from ABA or Son Rise or gluten/dairy free etc. Others don't. Most high functioning have unusual Neuro profiles that need to be worked with but encouraging the identification is unhealthy.[/quote]
