We just found out that our 7 yr old ASD child has some food allergies. My question is if he eats one/some of the offending foods does it cause any damage...
The question one must answer is whether he is allergic to the lactose in the milk or the casein. If it is the lactose, he will have pain when he ingests it....

This is true if a child has "leaky gut" but one can simply have a dairy allergy (alleric to all forms of dairy - casein and whey included) without it effecting...

My son is under sensitive to light and he keeps staring at lights which is a major source of distraction for him. In addition, he keeps looking at his fingers...
Hi Rima: Your son is not undersensitive to light because he is staring at light. This is common assumption in the field of autism that has been made for years...

... I just wanted to say that I agree with Gail on this! :) The thing about stims is that you really have to see when they happen so you can start to figure...

Greetings Rima, I wouldn't say your son is undersensitive to light as Autistic people are generally oversensitive to things, hence why lights are so...

For the past few days, my son presses his head against me (either his forehead or the top of his head) whenever he's angry or when he's very tired. I then...
Any ideas of cause, solutions as to why my daughter, Kath, (36 yo, nonverbal, very autistic) will not get out of the car? When asked why she FCs she doesn't...
I would keep a log of how far the trip is - it may be that if she sits too long (say more than 20 minutes) it causes her legs to go numb and it may be painful...
Sometimes this may be related to movement disorder problems. I work with a 17 year old young lady who at times has this same problem. When this problem arises,...
I know this is going to sound crazy, but I am used to trying anything with my autistic son (6YO). His fears and idiosyncracies do changups on me all the time....
Nancy Thanks. Nothing sounds crazy. We will try it. One day maybe we will understand the mysteries of the autistic mind. Wish we had been as perceptive as you...

Hi. My son is 9, and he has been having episodes for several years where he won't get out of the car. He won't even get out at home, just sits in the driveway...
