Guest guest Posted May 1, 2001 Report Share Posted May 1, 2001 I have just learned about this gfcf diet for autistic children and I would like to know if anyone has had the same problems as I have. My 5-year-old son has some autistic tendencies, but is still undiagnosed. He was late speaking and is still not using correct receptive/responsive skills all of the time. He resists having his finger and toe nails trimmed, having his toes touched, etc. He does not have good use of a pencil grasp yet. He has temper tantrums if I turn the grocery cart around in an aisle and go back the same way I came. He does not transition from one task to another easily sometimes and has some tactile sensitivities. He also craves milk and bread, to the point where he will go to the kitchen and get 2-3 slices of bread and then sit down and eat them without anything on them. I love bread and thought this was because he was taking after me. Thank you for any responses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
