autistic children

My sister is a special ed teacher/autism specialist. Most of the children in her program are foster children. They are very difficult to place in adoptive homes. Most of the foster placements are problematic but the state turns a blind eye, they have no where to place these children and the foster home conditions are very poor - too many children, nutrition poor etc. As a teaching professional she struggles with this daily. Encourage your friends to seek out public programs to support them and their child. I hate to sound the naysayer and hope others in the forum see it otherwise.
