I have a son who has autism.
When I tried him on pears plus bananas, he said that he liked them.
It seemed that he absolutely did because he would throw the banana peels in the trash plus the pears seemed to be eaten around the peach core. Also, whenever I would bring fruit from the store, he seemed happy about eating it. I felt pretty great about it for awhile until my son started experiencing breathing issues. I wondered for a minute if he was allergic to the fruit I was giving him, although I thought I would have seen some sort of allergic reaction sooner if that were the case. Well, upon inspecting his room, I smelled something bad coming from the Heating, Ventilation, plus A/C vent. I went to open the vent plus it was filled with rotten peach pieces plus bananas! Oh, it was so terrible plus nasty! I had to try to scrub all that crap out of there. And I’ll tell you, it’s not easy to discipline a child with autism without throwing them into a fit. I had to break it down undoubtedly carefully to my son that he can’t throw food into the air duct system. It all molded up plus that mold was spreading through the air duct, plus I guess that’s why he was having breathing issues. Even I was having a little trouble breathing after awhile, although I didn’t guess why until I found out about the mold. I had to have the professionals come out for air duct cleaning. They did a great job plus now my son feels a lot better in his room now, however he sure as heck won’t be eating inside there anymore!
