504 plan vs IEP

Does anyone have a 504 plan instead of an IEP? If a school isn't willing to write an IEP but they are willing to write a 504, what's the difference? Does a 504 really help in the way an IEP does? Are…Continue

You should read my post "Is anyone on a gluten free diet?" I mention Thomas' tics and how magnesium has helped. Others have posted their stories about going gluten free and casein free. It is very interesting. If Thomas reacted so…

It is surprising what certain foods can do in your body. My nephew had eye tics. He now avoids foods with magnesium antagonists. Now that he is getting more magnesium in his diet, his tics have completely gone away. I wonder if his behaviors would…

We tried the gluten free casein free diet for 6 mos and unfortunately, we did not see improvements.  My understanding it does work for some children and not others and you see more improvements in the children who do have digestive issues.

Our whole family is GF at this point and yes, it makes a huge difference here.  Both girls are on the spectrum and keeping their diet GF has changed their behavior and their health for the better.  I highly recommend it!

bbryant replied to Lisa Collins's discussion 'Aspergers and lying'
This is a very interesting question. I have heard both sides of this: people with Aspergers/ASD are concrete thinkers and very rule bound so they would not lie, then there are the people with ASD admitting that they have lied to get of trouble. I…

I am having issues the the school. Sometimes they can make things so difficult. Not wanting to recognize a diangosis just to keep their test scores high was one instance. There are many others. As previously stated, you will reach out when you are…

Does anyone have a 504 plan instead of an IEP? If a school isn't willing to write an IEP but they are willing to write a 504, what's the difference? Does a 504 really help in the way an IEP does? Are there success stories for people who have a 504?

If you look in the health food section or even the produce section, there are vegan/dairy free cheese. Whole foods markets and Trader Joes often carry these foods too.

I don't know where to begin...  My daughter does the GF/CF/SF (soy) diet and we see a signficant change in how she feels.  My daughter has a lot of gut issues and it plays a large part on how she feels.  For instance, two weeks…
