Aldo Thrives Among His Peers (Autism)

Aldo’s parents raised him on the Doman Method for well babies, teaching him to read, do math and be physically fit. He was a bright student too. Even though his intellectual knowledge was above average from the early stimulation he received from his parents, there were some things which he struggled with. He was behind his peers in his ability to express himself -- his handwriting was poor, he had difficulty with art and in socializing with others. By the time he was 11 years old, his problems became more apparent. Parents noted that he was experiencing difficulty in communicating and relating to others. He had a hard time making friends at school. His handwriting was poor in quality. He was also experiencing auditory and tactile hypersensitivities. He had challenges dealing with being in noisy, crowded areas. There was a part of him that was painfully aware of his own limitations and he felt frustrated with himself.

At the age of 11, his parents began the Doman Method® for special needs for him. His family consulted with Doman International and began a full program of recommended nutrition, respiration, cognitive and physical activities. In a period of just 6 months, Aldo has advanced greatly. He took his program to heart and worked hard at it. His ability to socialize with others and gain friends has blossomed. Today, he is proud to share that he has many friends and they are always showing up at his house to hang out with him. He finds it easy and fun to have conversations with others. His handwriting has improved in quality. He no longer experiences hypersensitivity in his hearing and tactility. He is now thriving in school and amongst his peers.

We are so happy to announce that both Aldo’s parents and the staff at Doman International agree he is ready to graduate from his Doman Method program.

We extend our hearty congratulations and wish the very best to Aldo!
