Guest guest Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 I still believe that the personal attention of a parent is more important than hired attendants. I am old fashioned, I know, but in the case of my son, when he was younger he needed more attention. Fortunately, he improved as he got older. But, I know then I wouldn't have had much chance of finding good, experienced help. And, the same for most cases today because there has not been a focus on addressing adults with autism...we need to start training attendants who can be there for the older ones. Maybe can cope...but is that really enough? I know what many will say...well we can do it OK today. But what is OK? Martha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
