Is there anyone out there that has a child with developmental delays with some characterisitics of autism, but not the classic ones, and has done the program? I have a 13-year-old daughter with global developmental delay/severe speech and language disabilities. They said it is not autism as she never did rocking, spinning etc., but she is extremely organised and routine-oriented, likes things straight and in a line etc. I live in Australia and would dearly like to hear from anyone who has had success with this sort of challenge.

Kind regards,
Gerardine
