Can signing be a benefit to older children who are already speaking?

Sign2Me.com | FAQs
Most preschool and elementary-age children love signing, as it engages their minds and their bodies. They love the movement, rhythm, and flow of sign language. Pairing the fun of signing with music is an excellent activity for children ages 3-8. The rhythm of the music, coordinated with the movements of the signs, is an excellent motor coordination activity that also builds language skills.

Is ABA appropriate for older children?

There is a popular misconception that ABA is useful or appropriate only for young children (under age 5). This notion probably comes from the remarkable successes of the UCLA Young Autism Project, in which many young children achieved normal functioning. While it may be true that the greatest benefit results from starting very young, this is of no importance when you are considering your child's future: however old he may be, you need to be sure you are giving him the best possible future.

If we have a child that is more than ten years of age, and they are HIV positive, this generally indicates that they are victims of sexual abuse.

Some of these children have been living with untreated venereal diseases, and have some major medical problems associated with rape. The greatest damage is to their value and worth as human beings, and they often feel worthless, used, and discarded.
