We are new to all this . Our son turns 5 in July and was just diagnosed with level 1 on autism spectrum and a high IQ 145-150. He is so sweet to his preschool teachers, friends, even strangers but he’s a different kid at home with us. We support him and all his ideas, give him so much love, he’s an only child and dad is 51, I’m 48 he’s our only child.. he doesn’t communicate well or listen well to us although has a huge vocabulary for a kid his age they say he sounds like a teacher, or robotic when he talks he enunciates very well. He starts kindergarten in aug and has a IEP set with a Para, starts occupational therapy in a week. Any suggestions on how to approach things we are beside ourselves, oh and he bangs his head when bored or when wakes up at night which is every couple hrs.. tired parents needing advice on it all lol.
