Yes. We used one of these, and it helped GL improve his balance. He even got to the point where he could balance on a two-wheeler, but only for Grandpa. Unless Grandpa was there, he refused to get on a bike without training wheels. And he leaned on the training wheels really hard. When he got big enough that he started bending them, I priced adult-strength training wheels, but found it cheaper to buy a second-hand adult three-wheeler.

We try to get him to try new things so he will have more options in life. A three-wheeler ended up being the best compromise for him and for us. I would still strongly recommend these scooters for children with balance issues. (Or any kid, really. These scooters are fun!)

HOW I WAS CURED TOTALLY FROM AUTISM
I had my first attack of (AUTISM) when I was a kid, I wasn't diagnosed until 27 years later when I was totally experiencing speech delay. It was so terrifying that I began dropping things and losing sensitivity to sounds, having severe fatigue and muscle weakness. A horrible poor eyes contact began. I sometimes can't walk straight and fall onto walls and I get leaning disability, the English medications i used proved abortive. i was so frustrated that i had to contact My neurologist,he told me about a new RRMS (relapsing-remitting MS) drug which was only in its trial stage, CAMPATH. I started the chemo-type treatment and some prescribed drugs like: RISPERDAL, EFFEXOR XR, GEODON and MEMANTINE. which resulted in 1st seizure of my life, thereby adding more salt to my injury. As a result to proffer solution to my problems, i started going online in search for a cure, i came across a testimony of a woman who got her son cure through HERBAL MEDICATION, at first, i doubted because of the misconception that autism can not be cured. But i later contacted the Doctor through the email provided, and I used his Herbal product, after 1 month of use, I noticed tremendous improvement in my health, 5 months after, I can proudly say, I've been totally cured by Dr.williams Herbal Medication from AUTISM..., If you have the same health issue, you may contact him for a total change of story, Via: drwilliams098675@gmail.com . I believe your predicament will be a thing of the past just like mine.
