I often see therapy ideas and activities shared on social media. Some of them look fun and creative. But not all of them are safe or effective for autistic children.
As a licensed occupational therapist, I always make sure that every activity I do has a clear purpose. Therapy is not just play. It supports development in thinking, movement, emotions, and daily life. When parents follow therapy trends without guidance, children may miss the right support they truly need.
Not all activities you see online are therapy. Real therapy is planned and guided by professionals who understand the childโs strengths and challenges. For me, safety and effectiveness always come first.
When therapy comes from the right professionals, children gain real skills that last. If we depend only on trends, we risk delays and even harm. I believe we must protect every childโs future by choosing therapy that is real, safe, and evidence based.
