Name that baby!

One red flag of ASD is children who consistently ignore their name, even though you are sure they can hear you.

When Quinn finally started walking, we were thrilled. She was about 16 months old. We didn’t even notice at first that she was up on her toes.

You say field trip, I say reconnaissance mission…

Kids hate errands. And kids who have sensory issues or ASD hate them more, because they are bombarded by new sights and smells and noise and those horrible, horrible lights. We parents are stressed out, comparison shopping, in a hurry, so we just want to get done what needs to get done without a meltdown or a freak out. The trick is this: Before you go in on a mission, you have to do a little recon work.
