I just found this forum..Its wonderful! My daughter 13, is quite a handfull, thats good and bad. Does anyone have any suggestions to help with the puberty and social issues, Shes smart, good with her hands, great with animals, but socially we struggle, She puts people off because she is moody, rude and can be annoying and sometimes can overwhelm other kids and theyre parents, however she can be kind and loving the next . She is now noticing boys and unfortunatly they are noticing her and this is scary because I know she would be easily led astray and not think through consequences. I try to keep her very supervised, she takes everyone at face value, I also have a 15 yr old girl who has no interest in boys, so I think my 13 yr old is more sexually aware. I want to keep her safe and healthy though these trying teen yrs. any suggestons would be great. She also has OCD/ADHD. Would love to hear from a mom whos been here

i bought my daughter books from the american girl library. they cover all thoughs issues in a way that they will understand. lots of pictures too. my daughter is 15. we have done things like watched the movie Elizabeth and in the opening of the movie i guess it was mary who was next in line to the throne and she had syphillis with all the open sores and insanity and such and explained what she had and how she got it and why she looks the way she does. that led into a discussion about sexually transmitted diseases she was pretty interested in what I had to say after that. i watch my daughter too...they can be taken advantage of easily if the wrong person comes along. not too many books for teens with autism are there??

Dr. Amy Yasko has found that there are some genetic causes of moods/aggression. Perhaps her site will be of help?

Jack's story....

After the 12 mos. vaccines my son gradually slipped into autism. He was head-banging, hand-flapping, twirling, lost speech, lost eye contact and he just withdrew.

Now two years later.... no head-banging, no twirling, no flapping, has eye contact and is starting to verbalize again. And... he has Down Syndrome to boot. :) Yes... even kids with DS get autism. Actually they get it at a higher rate.

What helped him? First I give God praise.... our son wouldn't be here without Him and we prayed and I believe He guided us. Second... supplements. Especially cod liver oil. I recommend Green Pastures CLO with the X factor. Check out Dr. Mary Megson's work on the web. http://www.diet-studies.com/megson.html Our Jack healed gradually... but he is healing. I actually had to make myself GET USED TO him not twirling everything any more!

Also check out Dr. Amy Yasko's work. www.holistichealth.com

We give Jack alot of supps - cod liver oil, probiotic, magnesium citrate, tart cherry and recently we added cilantro. He takes some other things too but each child is unique. It helps to find a good naturopathic MD or chiropractor. Don't use supps until you research things for yourself. Cilantro for example...should possibly not be used until some other detox has been done.

Don't give up. There is hope! And... I will be frank here.... many mainstream doctors know squat about how to heal autism. Don't let that throw you. There are people who do know how to help. God bless you! Love, Jack's Mom :) [email protected]
