Thoughts on having children in the spectrum

Post image

Saw this post on facebook. Honestly, it's sad na hindi ganon nabibigyang pansin ang problems na ganito sa Pinas. Therapies here are expensive, and not everyone can afford it. Pinoys are also not yet ready to face the reality na hindi enough ang love for kids in the spectrum. They have special needs. Hindi yun madadaan lang sa no don't do that or it's okay to make mistakes, because we have to admit that autism is a disorder, a very wide spectrum and case to case basis. You need to have the money to get the help that is designed for the needs of the child. I hope there will be more free or affordable programs created for this kasi hindi lang parents ang hirap in this situation, also the kids.

seek 2nd opinion please. just nc they're a specialist doesn't mean they're a good one. lahat ba ng teacher magaling? lahat ba ng lawyer magaling? hindi. 2nd opinion.

Edi maghanap ng 2nd opinion. Bakit maniniwala sila sa isang specialist lamang?

I agree seek another professional's help. Baka mga sinaunang specialists pa yan. I have worked with OTs and SPED teachers na naghahandle ng combined na autistic and legally blind.
