My son is 4 years old. Recently he was diagnosed with pervasive development disorder or mild autism. Currently he is not verbal much, he uses sign language when he wants something. He speaks alphabets, numbers, colors & rhymes. He was going to normal play school earlier but that time he was not diagnosed with autism. He could not continue going to school due to sleep issues. He used to do the activities in school but couldn't mingle with other kids & got scared seeing them. I wish to send him to school again. Shall I send him to main stream school or special school. Or shall I do occupational therapy besides sending him to normal play school. Please suggest.

You must have contacted specialist. You may send his reports to assess. Moreover I may say children with asd can recover with our autism treatment techniques. Autism spectrum disorder often display repetitive and stereotyped interests or patterns of behavior. Children suffering from autism have trouble communicating. Besides autism treatment you may go for ayurvedic suvarn praashann. We have very good suvaranprashan having nice herbs. This may be given 0 to 16 years at specified intervals. It is hoped that improvement will be much more but depends on severity of disease.
