I just got a Brickhouse Child locator and I can already feel less grey hair coming in....it doesn't work anywhere near 600 feet- more like 200 feet, but I am so much calmer knowing I can find my 7 1/2 boy with Autism. I got him a water-proof wrist band to wear the tag in. He calls it his "checkin" watch and doesn't seem to mind wearing it (shock!) or when I check in on him! I recommend it to any other parent who was loosing their minds chasing their kid around....

Hi Bill, I don't think anyone in here has ever mentioned medication, at least as far as I recall. I know my son isn't on any and I don't intend to medicate him.

The main reason I am here is to let you know there are other ways besides drugs to help with autism with no side effects. If you are interested, contact me.

For those who don't already know about it, there are a few Meetup.com Groups for autism. One is For young Adults on the spectrum and the other one is for parents, family members, teachers, therapists and those on the spectrum. I hope that this helps those who are looking to reach out and get to meet others going through the same things.
