[QUOTE="My3girls&me, post: 86776, member: 4192"] Hi Ohio. I am from the Cincinnati area and was interested in your post. I have a 4YO daughter that is showing AS and ODD symptoms. I have also been referred to Cincinnati Children's and have high hopes. I wanted to comment on your son's daycare. When I started to first really have issues with my daughter she was going to a daycare that was so completely non-supportive. I also got the "well none of the other kids seem to have trouble controlling themselves" speech. I was so frustrated and got to the point where I was having to leave work DAILY to go and pick her up because they would not even deal with her. There is a number is Cincy that you can call that can tell you all about the schools in your area as well as daycares and early learning centers. I called and the lady mentioned to me to maybe check into Montessori type learning. I put her into a early learning center in my town that teaches public school curriculum coupled with montessori ideals. It is more expensive than your average daycare but it is so wonderful! I must say that my daughter's teacher is amazing and a little more understanding and patient than most, but the Montessori style of learning has been such a lifesaver to us.
