My nearly 5 year old son who is autistic continuously eats all day long. As soon as hes finished one thing he'll go and find something else, if its not food its drink, he drinks like a fish too. I put it down to boredom as he doesnt really occupy himself that much and I know that if I'm bored I tend to eat loads too. I never thought that it might be because he doesnt realise that he is full Luckily he remains very skinny because I dont know what I'd do if I had to watch his weight as well. Lyns

I dont think I better say anything else - words fail me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm really not happy with the school that my son is in at the moment so would like to find a really good school as I feel this is really important. I would be willing to move right out of the area I am in at the moment but how do I find a school that will be suitable for him. I have had a couple of prospectus's from a couple of the NAS schools (Radlett Lodge andHelen Allison school) but just wanted know if anyone knows anything about these schools. I live in essex at the moment. Any advice about finding a good school appreciated. My son is 5 and has very challenging behaviour at times and is non verbal. Many thanks in advance Lyns xxxxxxx
