E.,
Wow you sure have your hands full! I am not quite sure what to tell you about the biting the furniture stage, but I would like to correspond with you about your son Ethan. I have a four year old daughter Angelina who is mildly autistic, she has speech, is very intelligent and was entered into early intervention at 15 months of age. She has progressed through a year and summer of pre-k and is in her second year of pre-k going into REGULAR kindergarten. She does have a full itme aide at school, and the school has done wonders for her. Behaviorally though, through meltdowns, miscommunication and eloping on her independent little mind....is very tough. I cannot imagine how you have FOUR! Does Rhys or Eve show any signs? I am petrified to even think of having another child, for fear of losing her on one of her great escapes. We are also looking into getting a service dog for her for at home and outside....enough about me. I would love to hear about you and your experiences with Ethan. Where is he on the spectrum?
I hope you get alot of repsonses to your real question, but I saw a chance to reach out to someone who may be a big help to me...so I took it....Thanks! Please write!
