Does behavior therapy help autistic kids?
There are some people who say it does. I am not an expert on the field
and so can't comment much on it. My observations about most therapies for autism
are that they all SUCK.
These children are extremely withdrawn and it is difficult to get them involved
in any type of therapy. Children
are too young to comprehend or sit through a session of psychotherapeutic
counseling. In general, behavior therapies are nothing more than scams. They do jack shit-except that the therapists charge exorbitant fees to listen to BS and offer more BS.
You can try and see if it works but I would not enroll for a whole
series. Just try out a few sessions first and see if your child responds.
Psychotherapy sessions are exorbitantly expensive and do not work all children
with autism. Like obesity, autism is one medical disorder, where there are many
charlatans who offer false promises- and only bring you great disappointment.
