How To Include Special Needs Children At Birthday Parties

By

If your child has certain special needs issues and invited to a birthday party, try to include them as much as possible. If the birthday party is a drop off party, you may ask to stick around by volunteering to help all the kids in order to be there for extra support and safety. Socialization is important and it is your duty to do everything possible to make sure it happens.

Vaccinations and Autism

By

By now you have probably heard the rumor that childhood vaccines can cause autism. Lets take a closer look at how this idea came about. In 1998 a British gastroenterologist published a paper in a medical journal theorizing a link between the MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) vaccine and autism. His research was based on interviews with parents based on TWELVE children!! The press ran away with the story that vaccines cause autism.

Since this global panic, a mercury-based preservative thimerosal has been removed from all vaccines. This was to just to be safe just in case the observed autism was in fact mercury poisoning. Throughout the past decade there have been dozens of studies that have collectively drawn on data from millions of children. These studies have consistently found no connection between vaccines and autism. In 2010 the original British medical journal retracted their original 1998 paper and the UK’s General Medical Council revoked the British gastroenterologist’s medical license.

Although we recommend all children get vaccines as scheduled there are still a few parents that swear that it was in fact vaccines that caused their child’s autism. What do you think? Please share your experiences and thoughts with us.

Birthday Parties and Play Dates

By

Most parents of children with special needs would love the opportunity to make the decision of what parts of a birthday party or play date their child can participate in. When organizing a party or play date, don’t forget the special ed friend who may only be in the class for part of the day.

Special Needs Play Dates

By

If your child has certain special needs issues and is invited by a friend to a play date, try to include them as much as possible in environments where they have the best chances of success. If a play date would be more successful at home, you may accept the invitation but ask if it is OK for them to come over to your house instead.
