Re: Teach - take Pills/our method

[Guest guest]

My ASD 9 Year old son has been taking pills since age 5. Before that I didnt

think it would ever happen. Our method is simple. He tilts his head back and

opens his mouth. I drop it in the back of his throat lightly and he has his

glass of water ready to drink. It works for us. Good Luck!
