@autismmamahere: Tomorrow my 4-year-old nonverbal son is going to school without me for the first time… and he’s taking the BUS. 🚌🥺 How did you handle your child’s first day of school without you? Did you cry? Were you terrified? 😭 How do you let go when your heart is still holding on? 💙 #A#AutismMomA#AutismParentsN#NonverbalAutismA#AutismJourneyF#FirstDayOfSchool
I didn’t I’m homeschooling him this world is evil I see all these stories of our babies being mistreated and I’m so scared of this happening to my son

It was soooo difficult I cried and cried I wanted to stop sending him but they told me not to it will help him more and I’m here to help him so I kept sending him with my heart broken 💔 and this is his second year and let me just say it’s the best decision I have done💙🧩 stay strong and positive it will help he is now talking and the behavior is so minimal.

I’m not doing it! If I have to resign and stay home to ensure her safety and make sure she gets all the support she needs, then I will! I know nothing about teaching but God knows I’ll learn.

Wednesday was my little guys first day of kindergarten. I got a call before noon that he was safe but he had eloped and made it out of the building. 😳 Then a second call later in the afternoon he was overwhelmed in PE and flung himself on the floor and hit his head. No calls on Thursday. Then Friday I got a call that they want to move him back to his PreK 4 class 🥺.

Been doing it for 30 years. Check into the school, talk with teachers. Communicate with staff is important.

No school yet he’s 4 and he’s in full time ABA. He will start school when he is ready and verbal. He’s saying words and gestures so I believe it only a matter of time. Blessings to you and yours.

I handled it ok. He’s been in ABA school since 4 years old. He’s 5 1/2 now- I dropped him and he gave me this look that he’s ready. So, I’m going base on his vibe. Stomach was in nots the first day til 2pm 🥴 we made it through..
