[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 110657, member: 1550"] Stims didn't help my son, in fact they made him more hyper. Some Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids do good on stims. I sat next to my son while he read and made sure he understood what he was reading and also kept him focused. He took one break--that seemed to be all he needed. Eventually, he did all his reading in school with his aide doing what I'd done, which made it easier for everyone. Son seems to have trouble motivating himself if somebody isn't there for morale support (or at least in the same room). Also, if it's not a subject he's interested in, son has more trouble with focus. He now reads at a twelfth grade level. He is fourteen. I think all the extra attention helped him. We also did you read, I read. His aide did too. He doesn't require that anymore. [/QUOTE]
