My Role
Parent
This is why I am passionate about special needs.
I have a 91/2 yo son who has recently finally got diagnosed with a foam of Autism. It has been very frustrating both with the school setting and at home for our family.
Skills: these are areas where I have expertise and might be able to help others.
NONE
Needs: these are areas where I have questions and will be looking to learn from others.
BALANCE, COMMUNICATION, INTEGRATIVE THERAPIES, SENSORY SOLUTIONS
The most valuable piece of advice I would offer to others regarding special needs.
Educate yourselves to the max!
What I hope to gain from My Special Needs Network
learn more ways that I can help with my sons frustrating and make daily living more effective and less stressful for the whole family
