SAMPLE READERS' POSTS

IN TODAY'S SCHAFER AUTISM REPORT

Looking into residential summer camps for 2003 for our daughter, 13, with

PDD-NOS and mild mental retardation. We would like to hear from parents who

have sent their children to residential camps for autistic kids in

Pennsylvania, NY, land and Virginia. elmiller@...

Is risperdal suitable for children with autism? As in case of adults at

least their brains are already formed, but children's brains are growing,

giving such drugs can cause harm to them later on, my son is not aggressive,

only he is hyperactive, he speaks only a few words, I am from Goa, India, I

came to U.S for my sons treatment. But the doctors here are telling me to

try him on resperidal. I tried for some days, but I did not find any

improvement, and I don't feel like taking risk. Please let me know your

suggestions and advice kalpana lobo lobonanc@... (mother)

Can anyone suggest outstanding programs for high-functioning autistic

children near enough to Manhattan for a daily parental commute? The child is

now six and lives in Manhattan. Parents would like to move to a community

with great services and a possibility of a yard and a friendly town. New

Jersey, N.Y., or Connecticut would be fine. Nana lkthib@...

A PA special ed teacher or someone eligible for an emergency certificate in

PA is urgently needed to fill a position at West Mont Christian Academy in

Pottstown, PA. We have a school district willing to do a non-traditional

placement for 10 yr. boy who will have 1:1 teacher with reverse inclusion

and some mainstreaming. If anyone knows of someone who could meet the

requirements please e-mail Lori at silfee@... for more info.

autistic children using Dr. Greenspan's techniques. For Sale -- bought for

335.00 will sell for 250.00 NEW! slangs6536@...

If you've signed the " Stop Frist " petition and would like to include your

child's picture in a collage that will be added to the petition, please

either e-mail it to me privately with a quick message saying you don't mind

if we use this picture or snail mail it to me with the same message and a

JoAnne Pike, 2530 N. Hwy. 41A n, SC 29571 The top of the collage will

simply say: AMERICA'S VACCINE INJURED CHILDREN!

Does anyone have suggestions on how to handle tantrums? What sort of

reactions is recommended? Zach will be fine then start running yelling

loudly and become disruptive, seemingly very upset, the reason for these

tantrums have exhausted us, so we just need calming strategies . Zach

is 8 yo. mommom55@...

******

Any information people have about autism-specific state legislation that has

successfully been passed during the past few years is sought. In Wisconsin

we are beginning a push for a legislative inquiry into autism prevalence.

Eventually we'll want to propose some related legislation. It would be

helpful to have successful legislation from others as examples of what

states are doing for people with autism and their families. Ideally it would

help to have the actual statute number reference so I could look up the full

text. It could be on anything. Medicaid, education, health care, family

support, research, funding, etc. shattuck@... Shattuck

I am looking for possible scholarships/grants to return to college to earn

might qualify me for special funds. Debi H. fightingautism@...

We have just relocated to the Raleigh/Cary area of NC and would like to hear

from parents in the area that have successfully navigated the Wake Co. IEP

process. Especially, any parents who have managed to get their child

included in a regular ed. with support. Our e-mail address is

lrbulluck3@...

We have been interested in digestive enzymes for our son and have seen

" Enzymaid " mentioned in several places but have not been able to find out

what the ingredients are in this preparation. We are aware that there are

both plant- as well as animal-based digestive enzymes. Has anyone used

Enzymaid or can anyone tell us what is in Enzymaid? Wajnowski
