Hi, I am so happy for you that your child did so well without intervention. Did they have OT, PT, Social Skills Classes or Speech? My kids were quite severe. If I had to do it all over again I would have done all the therapies I did because I saw jumps in my kids ability with each therapy,(Not all kids did all the therapies). I do understand what you are saying but I also did the programs myself (not Bowen) because I have adult ADHD and I did feel and see the measurable results. If I could improve at my old age in my 40's....at that time. Remember my kids are 19 and over so these were all over 17 years. Plus if you are into research about neuroplasticity you will see that target activity does grow neural-pathways. Things like in the integrated Listening program where my son suddenly stopped yelling when he was next to me, are things that would not have improved on their own. Or like when my son with autism stopped covering his ears overnight after the first session of listening. As for the show it is just passing along information and Bowen did not pay a cent for that show. I think I will see if I can go back and just delete that post as I see you are uncomfortable with it. I wish you well, Rebecca
