This is a very deep episode because we talk about her son and what she had to do to get him all the support she needed for him no thanks to her ex.  She talks about all things that she had to finally convice thearpist and judges and you name it, that were supposed to help her son but were convinced by her ex that he son was more than capable when he really wasn't.

Hey everyone,

  This is a very interesting episode of stories because we learn about Patty Laushman and her struggle she had with getting her son diagnosed with ASD and we find out that she may have ADHD as well.  We talk a bit about how she tried all methods to help her son thrive in the world and how she finally went with of the the most controversial methods which is ABA Therapy.

This is one of the most controversial because in the ASD community because of the ways the therapist goes about helping the client but like Patty said, it depends on the therapist you get. Patty swears by the therapist she got and he has helped her son in a way that he is able to succeeded in ways no other way could.

Now you are probably wonder why it is so controversial. Well as a friend told me there was a video going around the net with a therapist holding down the child's arms and retraining him from flapping.  Flapping is one of the ways those of us on the spectrum stimulate to comfort ourselves.

Patty also talks how she had a few businesses and how she came to start her Life Coaching service.  If you listen to end she is offering a free 30 minute session with her, but you have to listen to end of podcast for the website to go to.
