Why Laser Hair Removal Is Popular In New Orleans
Hello. My name is Penny and I am a single mother of a 5 year old with Autism. So first some statistics. Did you know that every year there are 1.5 million people born that will develop autism? 1 in every 50 children between 3 and 17 have some form of Autism Spectrum Disorder. Boys are more likely to develop it than girls. Now I am going to tell you my story but first I want to stress that my son is my life and an amazing youg man. Although I would wish an easier life for him, we have met some extraordinary people on our journey so far. At the age of two and a half my son went to daycare. The first I removed him from when I found him chewing on a staple. Second one when I heard him screaming from the front door and found out he had peed his mat because the teacher wouldn';;t let him get up to go potty. She was too busy sitting at the table texting and ignoring my son. Needless to say after putting my son in the car with my mother I am no longer allowed on either of their establishments after what I had to say to them. So are daycare';s really equipped to handle special needs children when they can';;t handle little tasks like that? That is what scares me. My son went to a third school and was there for awhile when they pulled me aside and told me my son was too disruptive and I should have him checked for Autism. Yeah they pretty much kicked my son out for something he couldn';t control but they put me on the first stepping stone to helping my son.
