My son has been diagnosed with ASD, ADHD, ODD, anxiety and depression. He is 15 years old. He has been in a residential program for "behavioral issues." I now understand that most of his adverse behaviors are down stream problems. I am learning a lot from this community and the accountability class that AE offers. I highly recommend it. I have found other resources as well that I want to share with other parents/families that have similar struggles. OPLM.com, Other Parents Like Me is a website that offers many online support groups for parents like us. They have experts presenting on various topics as well. Danny and Travis, we need to get you on there! The book, The Journey of the Heroic Parent has been like my bible. Brad Reedy is the author. There really is so much we can do as parents. I am feeling more empowered and more hopeful as I learn more. I hope these help!
