I do not believe the offering various therapies to heal autism

How I do believe with the various therapy offering. I was doing therapy for my child who has autism syndrome. Therapy was offered by two doctors when my son was three years old. I made this therapy at a ‘special mother and child hospital’ in Indonesia. Therapy was held for six months. even the doctors had offered me a kind of sedative to calm my child that tends to hyperactive. However, I did not give the sedative to my child.
How can a disease that does not know the cause treated.
According to me, they are the experts have to find the causes of the occurrence of autism first, and then provide a new drug or therapy. During this time I follow the developments on the autism case, as related to what happens to my child. But no one that can be concluded what the cause of the autism syndrome. There are many opinions that autism syndrome caused by the descent, the other said, because the damage from the mercury substances found in foods that are eaten by the pregnant mother. But all of that can not be evidenced. Then how should I trust the opinion that it basically does not has evidence?
When my wife pregnant, we go to a doctor every week to check-up the baby in the womb. All seem ok. There was no shortage of any kind. Until birth, the child we never separated from the supervision of a doctor. But what happens, my child was punished has autism syndrome.
I only hope that in some day there is an announcement about the causes and the syndrome autism that experts know how to improve the children who have got autism.

Effective way to teach children with autism syndrome to read

What I am going to write below is already worked on my child that has autism syndrome.
I did not find this way intentionally. This happens naturally.
Since the beginning, my son is very interested in music and sounds. He enjoyed the song from audio visual. It was possible that my treatment influence him since he was still a baby. Time baby, I put a small radio near him. And she enjoyed every song or music from the radio. If feel sleepy, he did not want to sleep in before turn on songs from tape recorder. When he can hold remote control and can operate it by himself, it’s many more his activity with the remote control to find songs. In conclusion he is very interested in the songs and sounds are rhythmic.
Initially it made me irritated because he turn-on then turn-off the audio repeatedly. However, because he enjoyed, I leave it.
The most effect on his ability to read is from CD audio. He loves most songs that have text. When playing audio, each stanza of the song texts, he stops then rewind repeatedly. Even, not only of each stanza, but each word of the lyric he repeats many times.
I provided him toys that have letters, but it was only a little taken his attention and it’s just decorated in his room.
At the age of three and a half years my son has already got ability to read. I was initially less confident with his ability to read. But after I test with a turn the letter again and again, found my child can already read.
Conclusion is through the strong interest of the child. And provide tools or toys related to his interest, complete it with the text.
In the case of my child, he was interested in music and songs, has brought him fortune to be able to read at age three and a half years.

Autism, a father experience has a son with autism symptoms

First of all I have to say to you that my English is limited, but since I would like to share my experience, I wrote this article.
At this time my son’s age is seven years old. He was born on 29 May 2002 at a top class hospitals in Bekasi, Indonesia. He was born with the Caesar operation help.
In his mother womb, my baby was very active. His moving in the stomach was extraordinary.
For parents who were waiting for a born forward, certainly we were very happy, although sometimes her mother suffered a pain holding the baby in the stomach.
Since the doctor stated a positive pregnant, we, my wife and I diligently consulted the development of the pregnancy once a week. Never absent. And the doctor said that the baby was healthy. My wife planned to birth normally.
But the plan did not bear normally, even already more than 6 hours born process begins. In Indonesia, there is a term called ‘pembukaan’ means opening of the womb, ie, how wide opened the womb mother began, usually measured with the fingers. Starting from one finger, which is called the opening first up to opening tenth, all fingers, can get in to help children out of the mother's womb.
At the time of the opening eighth already, the doctor called me and said that my wife needs surgery to take the baby out with Caesar operation.
Because of so tense, as of a father, I approved any direct suggestion of a doctor. I also considered the doctor knows better what to do.
After the operation finished, the nurse called me to see the newborn baby (in Indonesia, sometimes the baby's father are not permitted to accompany the wife is in surgery), my baby was normal, healthy, and certainly good looking like his mother.
Day by day passed and my baby appear very normal and was likely hyperactive.
At the age of one year, we traveled by plane to celebrate the first birthday. In the plane, even though he was vomiting, but his hyperactive not subside. In his mother pick, he loves kicking a chair at front of him so that the passengers who sit in were disturbed.
The time he started learning to walk, we provide equipment baby walker. Sometimes he did not like the baby walker and tend to swarm out from there.
At the age of one year three months, our children have started walk alone.
At the age one and five months, my child had already been running smoothly and always moving around. On a happy run, my child slipped and his head back hit quite hard at floor. He was crying, but it’s not too long.
At the age of two years, even though he would be laughing, but not yet speak out a word. He just screaming and ran around.
He was interesting very much in music and sounds.
He watched some hour-long video music. With remote control in his hand, the video was turned off-turn on repeatedly while he was laughing. He was pleased wit the song has a text.
When sleeping, he always disturb with a sounds outside, especially music sound. We gained him from the sounds, but his hearing very sensitive.
Even with sensitive hearing, but if his name called, he did not care and did not respond. Therefore, we bring him to doctor to be evaluated. But the doctor just cleaned his ears and said that his hearing was normal. But the doctor was a bit skeptical with the autism.
Although the doctor was suspicious with autism, but I was not sure, because some autism symptom signs that I read from the internet is not met. And people around us who have experienced says that every child have their own development.
There was one that attract my attention, my son never stop moving even though only a little and he loves jump around in bed, even to high-level, which makes me a bit worried as well. This was always often done.
Because of this, I often brought him to a game palace where children have the tool to jump. I was impressed with his balancing. He could jump high and rarely fall accidentally.
At the age of three years, because of no talk two-ways, we consulted to a specialist. The specialist was doubt with his opinion. With some tests, my child was normal, and even tend to be smart in his age, but no talk.
Although the specialist said the doubt of his opinion it tend was the autism symptoms, but he was not sure with the right opinions. He offered us to the therapy.
We follow the doctor suggestion with the therapy twice a week. Therapy was to train his concern and train his motorist.
But I was disappointed with the motorist trainers because if tend to punish my child if he did not follow his instruction. Therefore I stop motorist therapy. However, we keep continuing with the concentration therapy until six months last.
There was one more remarkable in my child. At the age of three and a half years, my child could read already, without our taught. Although we prepared equipment letter, but because of difficulty taught, the tools was only a decoration in his room. Suddenly he began to spell what he read. I was initially less confident with his ability to read and consider it only because ability to remember which usually happens to the child in his age. But after I test with a turn behind the letter, it appears that he can read well.
I look how he can read. I found the answer, because he likes music, watch videos, and happy music that have text, and his habit to turn on and off, that is how he learned to read.
There is another marvel, the ability to play organ. Because of his music hobby, I provide him with a variety of music toys even real music like guitar and organ.
At this time he can play the tone in the organ, tones for each song of his interested. He prefers to play organ manually, without assisted rhythm. With his tenth fingers, he can even accompany the songs with the bass tone as well. I am very impressed with the ability to play this organ.
At the age of five years, we entered him to the kindergarten school. When done from kindergarten, we entered him to regular primary schools. At first I considered to enter him to abnormal primary school, but the principals in that schools recommend us for entering to regular school.
Even now his mother still accompany him in the class because of our worry with his disturbing to other children who are learning and because of his not to dwell but In the class he got ranking two.
There is one more remarkable in his ability, to sing a new song just appear on tv. He remember who the singer name, what the title is and who the creator of that music. In Indonesia, there is TV station that show ‘the missing lyric’, sometimes I test his ability with the event, and for the songs that now appear on the tv and he knows every lyrics song.
Although many prosperity, but we have to keep an eye on because some time he does not be aware with the dangerous. He loves swarming the tree to high-level and some time does not hold at tree branches.
Keep on eye to a continual basis some time make us so tired.
Now he can speak but still poor speaking. He is talking but some time we can not understand what he is trying to deliver. Sometimes he delivered something with the song’s lyric. However, he can be, for example, wear clothes in order, brings out the trash, or some other command.
He actually want to be have a friend, and often ran about children who are contemporaneous, but children sometimes do not understand what he want so they tend to deny. However, he still does not want to get away from the throng of children.
We are always waiting when he can communicate smoothly. We hope some time there is a way to heal autism. Because as a family with autism children, oversee ongoing is very tiring.
However, affection and love to our children will never subside.
