Good afternoon thank you for reading my posts I’m new to this forum I decided to join as I have a 5yo son diagnosed with Autism he is my pride and joy we love him so much and we would like to ask for your help we need clarity on what to expect as we are quite apprehensive about him start school this year.
Our son is unique he’s a lovely boy who is filled with energy, enthusiasm and happiness however he has social interaction issues finding it very difficult to keep friends he is very self orientated he tends not to reply when spoken to and wriggles and moves a lot it’s really difficult to get him to focus on tasks for long periods the paediatrician has told us this might become a problem in school and we might need to think about medication she said the medication has side affects but she said we can revisit this issue after the first term of school.
To be home we are so scared to give him any medication that’s why I decided to reach out and see if anyone else here has any experience they’d be willing to share.
Thank you.
Dee.
