A bit of confusion
From User:Eubulides' talk page:

The articles: Alternative therapies for developmental and learning disabilities and Autism therapies are too vague and complex how they're separated. The only scientifically-proven therapies are ABA, TEACCH, and PECS (as well as Speech and occupational therapy.) Also Son-Rise is also the least scientifically proven therapy. Why isn't there one article called Early childhood intervention for developmental and learning disabilities, explaining both scientifically-proven and non-scientifically proven approaches? ATC. Talk 23:37, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Also this seems confusing too: List of alternative therapies for developmental and learning disabilities. List of Alternative therapies? Some of them have been mentioned in the other articles too. Why don't we just use one article and merge all the therapies together? ATC . Talk 01:00, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
 * One article for everything sounds like a big project (and a big article). I'm not familiar with the list article and don't know why it's there. Eubulides (talk) 01:58, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay but do you think Son-Rise&mdash;very similar to Floortime/DIR&mdash;shouldn't be listed in the Autism therapies, as it not scientifically proven, and instead, be listed in the Alternative therapies for developmental and learning disabilities. Additionally, the therapies mentioned in the list article, I will put in my sandbox until I can find ways to include it in the alternative therapies article. And I will put the list article up for proposed deletion. I'm going to add this discussion on the alternative therapies article's talk page. ATC . Talk 02:18, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I suggest discussing what should be in Autism therapies in that article's talk page, not here. Eubulides (talk) 05:02, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

The article does well to describe information in a clear and concise manner, however much of what is presented is not neutral to the topic. Though there are articles that support what has been written, it does not allow for the reader to interpret information about different types of alternative therapies. Rather, the information presented attempts to persuade the reader one way. To rewrite the information, consider writing about each therapy presented in the lead.Annamarieloomis (talk) 03:01, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
