baddad Report post Posted August 10, 2011 Hi pancakemaker - sort of wish someone else had posted this 'cos I think you might feel I'm being 'picky', which I'm not. I've had a quick look at this site, and other than lots of pop up warnings and a 'free screensaver' banner or somesuch when i closed the window it's pretty much just an advertising portal / search engine to people selling various interventions and products. It may actually break forum rules about links to commercial sites. The forum does have a very good 'resources' section with info on most of the kind of thing listed here and more... To be honest, a lot of the stuff mentioned on the website you link (ABA, Stem Cell therapy, 'online' child diagnostic tests, online courses etc) are IMO heading in the direction of 'Woo' and anything but helpful, and when you follow any link you get sent off in all sorts of strange directions. As I say, I hope you won't infer anything personal about this - I would be posting exactly the same reply whoever posted the link. If you haven't looked yet, it would be worth spending some time in the 'resources' and / or diets and meds sections of the forum. With regard to some of the 'Woo' stuff there's a very good and useful checklist (NAS, I think) listing types of therapies, independent evaluations and a '20 questions' to ask.

Xx No worries - I think the 'swap shop' thing is a good idea... maybe if you could find that particular site you could link directly to it? As far as posting goes, when you 'start new topic' it will add it in whichever forum you are currently browsing, so if browsing 'off topic' the new post will appear in off topic. If you want to post to a different area browse to that section first and then go to 'start new topic'.
