My 2 year old son has autism

Hi

I am a 41 year old mother to my daughter who is 21 and son who is 2. My son has autism. I am so afraid for his future, i read lots and lots of information on how i can help him. I totally stressed out because i dont know what to do for the best. How will my son develop. I have some understanding about autism, my son says one or 2 words occasionaly but not much eye contact, he plays in his own little world. Im worried he doesnt even know im around.

Can anyone talk to me about positive experiences and the best stratagy to help my son. I cant eat, sleep, or think clearly.

  • Thank you so much for your kind words. I think my son is trying to say some words but i cannot be sure since it mostly sounds like complete random jibberish. No i am too scared to put him in nursery as he is so behind. His receptive language is also very poor, so he understands very little. I am still waiting for his proffesional support but i have a fantastic supporting family who help when they can. Any advice and support you can offer is very welcome.

    Thanks once again x
