Comments on: Understanding the Mis-Understanding http://www.autismathomeseries.com/library/2009/06/understanding-the-mis-understanding/ Tips, tricks and strategies for parents of children on the autism spectrum. Wed, 09 Nov 2011 12:53:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Ross Mannell http://www.autismathomeseries.com/library/2009/06/understanding-the-mis-understanding/comment-page-1/#comment-129 Ross Mannell Fri, 15 Jul 2011 21:53:00 +0000 http://gator883.hostgator.com/~schneide/?p=92#comment-129 This was a wonderful post. I have spoken to parents who have been shattered by the news their child is autistic. They, like you, searched for answers to see what had happened and what could be done. They eventually come to the realisation autism is real and is part of their child. Acceptance of the condition then allows them to look at what can be done to maximise their child's life. It seems to work like the five stages of mourning as parents learn to cope... Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance Having dealt with Aspergers children as well, they can be so high functioning in a number of areas yet have difficulty in social situations. I have found them to be remarkable in so many ways, particularly in where they direct their interest. Ross Mannell (teacher) Australia This was a wonderful post.

My 14 yr old daughter was diagnosed with autism when she was 4 and has been on the GFCF diet ever since. There has been huge improvements, however there are still many of the traits and I would be willing to try anything to help her! Thanks. Where can I get some glutathione capsule, MaxGxl?
