Attention Gluten Free Wardens
Just an observation. Don't take it personal. But Autism + Gluten Free = Maximum Security, Life Sentence, No Parole, Stuck in The Hole, Littlest guy in Prison Syndrome.
On the flip side, I know for some it does help. I am one of them. And getting back to a gluten free existence (for the health and safety of those around me)
Just keep this in mind. And if you are trying this diet, be prepared to go the extra mile to provide foods are very similar to foods they are familiar with that contain gluten.
Seriously, I am 29 years old and even though I understand this process, emotionally I do not. I get mixed messages from stimulus telling me that I need these things because my habits heavily influence my senses.
Going gluten free should really include a good 2-3 weeks trial of new recipes that are like the things your child already eats, but gluten free. And don't forget, it takes a year for gluten to completely be out of your system. So patience is also something you should be ready for. But in some cases, it can be worth it. But don't add more than you can presently handle. I'd never push it unless, like me, your child is rapidly losing weight due to a gluten intolerance.
And that is all for now.
