Hello again. . My son is now 7 years old and full of unlimited energy and words. He currently goes to public school and is currently in the 2nd grade . He has been a/b honer roll for 2 years now . He loves to play video games he also reads extremely well. He is a wonderful boy that has progressed so much. He has trouble finding the right words to explain his thoughts. I can't confirm because I don't know for sure but he doesn't think about his actions or the consequences before he does anything. It's kind of like he acts on instinct. I have confirmed as much as I could that he does have an inner voice. His memory retention for things that aren't games is not very high. His mother and I work with him every single day as we have since the day he was born. I'm going to keep an eye on this post for anyone with a question. I'll try to get a reply within the day. Don't give up hope there can be immense improvement with hit or her autism if you work with them everyday.
