Intervention

I read a lot of American autism sites and they all talk about "early intervention" being the key to "recovery".

What do they mean and why is the British view of autism so different? Can you recover from autism?

    That's what I thought.

    How awful for your son. I watched a video about autism once and the lady on there related an experience that she had where a teacher told her:

    "I know your child has autism Mrs so and so but as far as I am concerned he leaves it at the door of my classroom."

    I remember thinking that that had to be the single most absurd response ever!

    I am so glad we home ed our sons, they are well out of that system IMHO.
