lil_me Report post Posted October 6, 2005 Well done to him "If what I am doing makes even the smallest difference then great," he says, "because, to be honest, there is not a great deal of support out there for the parents of autistic children. "One of my friends is the father of two children with autism and he got it just right when he said: 'We got the diagnosis and waited for the cavalry to arrive but it never arrived'. I am pleased he's inculded that in the article to highlight the problems faced by parents due to lack of support. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
