25:18 I'm so defeated my son started medication before his ADHD and he has tried several they all make him emotional, aggressive, and irritable. He started ABA yesterday and I had to pick him up he meltdown.

37:55 Our school wants us to consider sending our 9 yrs old daughter to another school where they have 8/3 ratio because she isn't keeping up academically. We worry that this will not be an inclusive experience and will affect her mental health. How will she do moving away from her only friend and the anxiety of a new school?

42:19 Hello, how can I help my 20yr old son who wanted to attempt suicide last week, he's coming out of the mental hospital in a few days, now I don't know how to treat him, he's not on the spectrum. His younger brother is the one with autism, please help me with any advice you may have.
