Question by mybubblesrblue: What are good activities to do with a child with autism?
I work with a kid who is 13 and has autism, he is non verbal but understands what i am saying and listens very well. He loves going to our local library and listening to music on the computer. But we do that so often that i feel bad for not taking him else where. I need to find some local places i could go or cheap activities for us to do that would entertain him. We live in naperville, illinois. thanks!

Answer by MelC
well the great thing about children with autism is they LOVE routine so where your getting bored he is excited each and everyday waiting for those activities to come up. If you changed his routine it could completely throw him out of his routine and he could end up really disliking the choice and be very upset the rest of the day or possibly rest of the week. I recommend you keep him with what he is happy doing or maybe you could show him some pictures of activities and include what he normally does and see what he picks. My guess is it will be what he does everyday.

A Look at still in diapers Autism in I think my best friend/roomate’s child has autism or something…?

still in diapers Autism:

Question by ?: I think my best friend/roomate’s child has autism or something…?
He is 3. He doesn’t talk. He cannot say hi, mama, dada, nothing. He makes toddler sounds. He walks but also crawls. He will not eat solid foods and throws fits if his baby food gets on his clothes. He gets eye contact and smiles and laughs, and loves being around children, however. I am not sure if this is purely because of neglect to try to teach, but I have a feeling that even if simply observing that the child would pick up on more than he can now. He is still in diapers and drinking out of bottles. I tried to talk to my friend about taking him to the doctor but she wont listen to me and says only that her doctor told her he would grow out of it. I found a website talking about seeing autism signs and the comparisons as to what a child should be doing by 3 years, and the boy doesnt even do what it says a 7 month old should be doing aside from walking. He does not throw fits or scream often, but he has problems with the texture of foods and gets very upset if you try to feed him anything solid. He gets fixated on material and often rubs his hands on them. He also plays a lot with plastic toy cars but will not use any ANY words even at all… thats about it…. I dont know any other things to add but feel free to ask. What should I do? I am 22 and living with her, she is 39 and is my mothers best friend… I dont know how I can get help for this child.

Answer by Tracey Seth
It may not be autism, but there is something amiss.

Seriously, if this is a subject that has been approached by you before, I’d be calling child services.

If the mother is 39 and not getting that there is something “off” with her kid, then there needs to be an intervention of sorts so that that kid can get the services and intervention NOW. The sooner the better and less likely his delays will affect his future.

YOU are not equipped to approach her. Seriously, at 22, you know very little and it’s pretty clear she isn’t going to listen to you. So, contact someone she will listen to. Usually, a SS call will wake up people like that pretty fast. You can remain anonymous if you wish.

A Look at autism signs in Anyone have a child who is very young and displaying autism signs?

Question by PregnantMama: Anyone have a child who is very young and displaying autism signs?
I have an 18 month old who is exhibiting all the key signs of autism. He has been referred to a pediatrician who also thinks he has autism. I am really having difficulty finding ways to help him cope. I have a lot of people helping him, but we haven’t been able to find some real key comfort things to help him.

Does anyone else have any children who were diagnosed with autism young? How did you cope? How did you help your child?

Best answer:

Answer by *Thomas Is Our Autistic Wonder*
Hun you have not really said ‘what’ signs with autism there are various and each depends on the severity of the autism, Thomas <<<<< was three with he was diagnosed here in the UK for some reason they seem to leave children longer than they do in the USA .. Thomas wasn't talking at aged three wouldn't play or interact with his twin sister at all, hated cuddles or being held and played with parts of a toy, now Thomas is 10 he is non verbal and still in nappies/diapers .. we were given ways to cope and help his behaviour buy its best to know what and if in fact you are dealing with autism, the doctors with help you with this when and if you get a diagnoses, at 18 months not many children talk or talk well, but as i say it does depend what other 'symptoms' your son does have
best of luck
