I completely 100% agree with what she is saying.It is what we do with Alistair and it works.I believe whole heartedly that he can and will recover from it.

I'm glad you liked it, Leanne! On my Facebook page I got mostly negative comments regarding the video. I felt happy for the family and pleased that something worked well for them. I don't think it could work for everyone, in all cases.
The only thing I didn't like about it is that they talk about the boy right in front of him. But it's nothing huge - I just have a personal thing where I don't like when adults do that to kids. But I appreciate it was an interview setting.... and I'm pretty sure it goes back to my own childhood so am aware it's totally my own issue. ; )
Overall I found it very inspiring and thought it made a lot of sense.
