[QUOTE="Liahona, post: 469710"] Two words for your husband Brain Plasticity Something can be wrong with a child's brain at birth and the brain can be trained to re-wire itself with the right kind of therapies. This is why its so important to get all this testing done early and go to the endless therapies and drive ourselves nuts with new parenting techniques. Especially if a kid is on the autism spectrum. I'm not sure if it works for the other diagnosis, but I suspect so. Guess what it slows down dramatically about 6 1/2 years old. Yeah, he is only 4 and as the great mom you are you are going to squeeze every teaching moment you can into the next 2 1/2 years. The pace of your life slows down after they get older.
