My son was diagnois with autism, well he ever get better and start speaking more soon?

Answer 1

Yes, how old is your son first off? My 4 1/2 year old was diagnosed with autism b/c he has a speech and developmental delay beyond what normal 4 year olds. (At the time he was 2) We got him in a speech therapy class hrough Easter Seals. Then when he turned 3 he was put in school. It has worked wonders for him, but his disability will never change. You can tell a difference when you have a 2 1/2 yr old and a 4 1/2 yr old that are up to the same speed in talking and what not.

Answer 2

Autism is a catch all for a bunch of different situations. Some people with autism are very high functioning others are not. I would need more information about your son to really help you. You may feel better if you do research about people who have autism that presents similarly to your son. Don't panic or give up hope or anything rash like that. I remember when I was told my son had cerebral palsey, I felt better after I read more on the subject.

Answer 3

i have a friend that has an 11 year old with a mild form of autism. there are a lot of different kids of autism and they all differ in regards to function. the boy doesn't speak well at all... i can make out SOME of what he says... but no where NEAR everything. his own mother, father and siblings seem to understand a LITTLE more than i do... BUT, recently he was taken to a new dentist and my friend was told that because his top jaw is shorter than his bottom jaw THAT could be playing a big part in his speech problems! so, we're all hoping there is something that can be done for him. his self-esteem HAS to suffer... i feel so bad when he gets frustrated because no one can understand SOME of the things he says (like when he's excited or upset). BEST OF LUCK

Answer 4

My youngest son is autistic. He'll be 15 in November.

Your son will never get "better" per se, but that doesn't me he can't have a full and rewarding life, learn to speak, go to school, etc.

The most important thing is a loving, nurturing home. Second, autistic people tend to be very visual. They have a lot of trouble with sound, often right in the speech-range frequencies. Use cue cards as early as possible, with detailed pictures. He probably has a limited diet, so naming his foods is a great place to start.

After a diagnosis of severe autism 11 years ago, I can tell you my son is age-appropriate, gets very good grades in school, and sings in a rock band. Go figure! He's also amazingly talented at drawing. He learned to talk by mimicking his favorite videos.

Answer 5

How old is your son? My niece was diagnosed with autism when she was about three. They were able to get her into a program for kids with autism around that time. She is now 9 and has made dramatic improvements in her speech. She has been enrolled in dance classes since she was about 4 or 5. I think the key is getting him in a program for autistic children as soon as you possible.

Answer 7

With early intervention, your son should get better. Unfortunately, he will never be fully cured. If he is under 3, take him to your local Regional Center or if 3 and up, take him to your local school district for testing. Get him speech and language therapy ASAP. They should provide this and any other types of services your son needs free of charge.

Answer 8

It's totally individual. Some autistic kids develop a broad vocabulary and some don't at all. Be sure to work to develop a good support system and get your little darling all the services he is entitled to. BTW, I have worked with some adorable autistic students....your child will be loved and adored. Good luck!

Answer 9

The sooner you see him as your son and as your son with a problem, yes. It takes a lot of hard work, effort, comfort and love. He needs you and the more help you get him and give him and show him his worth, the sooner you'll be able to communicate and reach out with your son.
