As I've previously mentioned in another thread, my 4 year old son is autistic and unable to communicate. He loves Wallace and Gromit with a passion, usually watching the films 3-4 times per day. Anyway, yesterday we started PECS, (picture exchange communication system). It's a specific way of using pictures/symbols to allow children to talk without talking basically. My son had a PECS card given to him which said "I want to watch" and the picture was a TV. After the speech therapist left my son handed me the card and said "Wallace and Gromit on!" I could have cried!!! We now have a PECS card with a picture of Wallace and Gromit on it, (so he can ask for W&G any time he wants now)! Heehee! I thought I'd share this because although this might seem completely uninteresting and it doesn't sound like a big deal, for a child with fairly severe mental health problems it is a massive achievement!... So thank you W&G for helping my son to communicate!

That's AMAZING! I've read about things like this before, and I've found the stories inspiring. I think it's wonderful that he can communicate with you now!
 

That's awsome!!!! I'll pray for your son to continue doing so well.

Wow, that's amazing!!

Praying for continued improvement! God Bless!

Your son must be incredibly smart. My non-verbal autistic cousin Luke uses PECs to communicate.
