  1. He would have been better off going out for a walk.

  2. Yet he's smart enough to accept it.

  3. Yes I looked it up to, I saw that his Dad died in 1984. Thanks for the rest of the update.

  4. Sometimes babies and toddlers brains get damaged, sometimes the onset is vaccinations by the age of 2. You see the baby / toddler's brain hurts and so he will have a tantrum. My son sat on the floor and had mini-seizures - banging his head (the back of his head on the floor). Like doing a situp only smashing his head on the floor. We didn't understand it but but would try to catch him, soften the blow. Later that year he looked right through me, no communication at all. Then diagnosed with autism. So he developed physically but non-verbal year after year. The speech center of the brain is damaged yet the brain scan - the doctor said it seems normal. I had to move out yet would always check on him and his sister. His mother could not work because her job was caregiver for our son and our daughter (she was normal), so she went to school but her mom was always there for her too. Our son is now 21 and aging out of his school, a school for children and young adults that are autistic or have cerebral palsy. He does seem to like school though, he wakes around 7:30 and his mom drives him to school and he starts at 9:00. The marriage was tough, unfortunately there was fighting and disagreements. So I lived on my own. The divorce was finalized a couple years ago. Now I am a caregiver for my son. I am paid by the state and go to him every day for 4 hours. And he does an overnight with me around the weekend. So far we keep him out of some strange place caring for him.

  8. Right his parents kind of sucked, but some people cannot deal with these ttypes of problems. Here's my story and experience: Sometimes babies and toddlers brains get damaged, sometimes the onset is vaccinations by the age of 2.

  9.  @Gemzydizzle  I don't know. The spectrum is just too wide. You're sure your son was born that way but with my son I'm not sure, he seemed normal for 21 months in my son's case. It's rude to say educate yourself on this. My son will be 22 years old next month. How old is yours? Mine is non-verbal except for a few, is yours?

  10.  @machinagirl  It's probably BS though.

  12.  @Gemzydizzle  "While most people who receive vaccines don't experience serious problems, vaccines can cause side effects, including rare and severe allergic reactions. The National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) may provide financial compensation to people who file a petition and are found to have been injured by a VICP-covered vaccine. Even if a petitioner isn't found to have been injured, they may still receive compensation through a settlement." GOOGLE I know there were vaccine cases that paid for autistic people. Here's some education for you.

  15. There isn't very much wrong with him mentally. So then what his parents did was wrong on many levels.

  17.  @LeniDell  I live in Virginia and my son is low- functioning autistic, and now 22 years old. His mom, is my ex-wife and we know there are group homes now. It's someone that concerts his / her house in to one. Usually they have 4 live-in patients at a time. They can be there indefinitely. And I would guess that all states are doing it this way. An RN has to be connected to each home. In a way it's a business.

  18.  @annepatton8727  Thank you, and I did learn a helluva lot over the years. Maybe I can help others someday too.

  23. Now they are replaced by group homes that have like 4 or 5 kids, and older people in them. Run by a small staff or a married couple. The one with a married couple that has them are called residential homes. Some of them operate simillarly though, they have some meds to give to the people / patients.
