Any advice about having a child who was diagnosed with autism?

Parent support group: Parents who have children with autism can share info on resources available in your area and how to obtain them. The professional who made the diagnosis may be able to guide you toward these resources and provide necessary documents. Other parents can share strategies they have learned to address the many challenges of raising a child with autism. Embrace the challenge and the child will benefit.
