Today I am in Boston, Massachusetts. When we walked into the hotel, I noticed an event for Autism going on and had to check it out. Unfortunately, I missed the conference and Dr. Amy Yasko speaking from the Neurological Research Institute, LLC. I did get to talk to some of the women working [...]

Autism Speaks Walk Cincinnati

Autism Speaks held a walk in Cincinnati, Ohio on May 22nd, 2010 that I had the privilege to take part in. I wasn’t really sure what to expect and it turned out better than I could have ever expected. When my Mom, who flew up from Florida to join me in the event, and I [...]

Autism Now Walk and Social Events

As some of you may already know, my Mom and I participated in a walk for the Autism Speaks foundation with Q102 last Saturday. I wasn’t really sure what to expect since the only children with Autism that I have been around were screaming and trying to get away from the adult with them. I [...]

What Happens When The Parent Also Has ADHD?

With my son, I did not ask the pediatrician if he has ADHD. She just watched him and his behaviour and said “Let’s try a team sport.” I am so very grateful that I have had the opportunity to be introduced to conditions that I though only affected children. Children have not been through years [...]

STEP Systematic Training for Effective Parenting

HARO tweeted about a parenting style called STEP, or Systematic Training for Effective Parenting this morning that sounds like it could be a relief to many parents. The website www.tiredofyelling.com explains some of it, has comments from parents and offers ways of getting the program details. What I want is to hear from actual parents [...]

ADHD, or Possibly My Life

I have a six year old son who is well, let’s just say really, really active. There are times when he will completely zone out and watch a movie if it’s a really good one. Then there are the times when he could not stop talking or sit still if you offered him all of [...]
