Can Early Intervention Reverse Autism?

This has been in the news the past couple weeks. Early intervention is critical to early childhood development. After working with families in the e.i. system, I realized how much they knew in their hearts when something ‘just wasn’t right’ with their baby. Encourage parents to follow their hearts, ask questions and get second and third opinions because pediatricians are not always able to pick up abnormalities in short office visits.
