At What Age Should My Daughter Start With Neurotherapy?

I have a daughter Lauren, presently on ketogenic diet.

The first year was very turbulent with AED weaning and a lot of tweaking of the calories.  Her second year had gotten much better and seizures are much better controlled.  We are presently looking into neurotherapy for her, we live in Ontario, and I am getting conflicting opinions (professional) on the age to start the therapy.

Lauren is 8 years old and has been left with a delay of 2-2.5 yrs.  Could anyone give me an idea of when to start?.

Feel Safe While Giving Your Kids Independence When They Are Playing

By Julie Welch
 
As a mom, there is a constant struggle between letting your kids gain their own independence and our desire to protect them when they are playing. If you were like most children years during your formative years, you likely wandered off from your parents, whether in your own home or in a public place. And, as you would feel now as a parent, your parents were likely frantic in their search for you. Children will wander. So, in order to feel more comfortable as a parent while your children are playing, it is important to take proactive measures to watch them and to protect them.

Learn Important Signs A Child Is Being Bullied

By Jessica Clark
 
Being a parent of a child with a disability can be very difficult. Not only do you have to deal with living with your child's disability, but you also have to deal with your child being treated differently by other people. Sometimes, this means that your child is getting picked on or bullied by other kids. Depending on your child's disability, your child may not always be able to tell you what is happening to him or her at school. This is why it is important as a parent to know the signs a child is being bullied.

By Jessica Clark
 
Jenny McCarthy is speaking out against vaccines, not because she is against the vaccines themselves, but because of the loads of unnecessary toxins in vaccines. Why is she so against the "toxins"?
