Click here to use Mark Hutten, M.A. as your personal parent coach. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I have just listened to you program and now am more able to be more specific!!!  Seriously I have seen 5 psychiatrists, behavioural peds, many psychologists and now 2 specialist psychologists in OCD and Mark, your program is the only one that is practical!  I have been to the “best” specialists in my state and no real progress has been made.  In fact the last person told me this was as good as it was going to get and to just get use to being his carer!!!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Mark Thank you for your email. I am running a small parent support group in Grahamstown, South Africa and have encouraged the parents to sign up for your newsletter too. It comes highly recommended. Keep up the great work! Kind regards, Amanda Edwards Speech, Language & Hearing Therapist ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“My son wakes in a terrible, nasty mood. He goes to bed happy, laughing and loving. Nothing that I do can deter him from ruining his day and the day of those around him. I have tried everything to help him turn the day around - from being extra cheerful, music, ignoring, consequences, taking away privileges, talking about it, timeouts, etc...

He was diagnosed with ADHD, age 5. However, I realized at age 7 that it was something much more complex than that. Finally, this past winter, he was diagnosed with mild-to-moderate ASD.
