Moms View Message Board: Parenting Children with Special Needs: New therapist

Well, not really. We saw him about 4-5 years ago for about 9 months. We all liked him (even Robin) but didn't seem to be getting anywhere so we tried other people. Did get anywhere with any of them, either! So we (I) decided to give this guy another try. Robin saw him yesterday. He remembers us, but Robin says he doesn't remember him. He DOES remember some of his toys, though! lol We're going to try and see him weekly for now. The great thing about Robin being schooled at home is the schedule will work out wonderfully! Last time we saw him it was always hard to get there because everyone wanted the after school appointments. Instead of locking people into specific appointment times he rotated them so it was more fair. I totally understand that, but having appointments at 2pm one week, 4 the next, 5 the next, and 3 the next was confusing and frustrating scheduling-wise. Now we'll do either 9 or 10am every Monday. It works well for both of us. *D* says he has a hard time filling morning appointments because all his clients are in school. We've chosen two major issues to work on for now. Trust me, there are lots more, but it'll probably take a while just to get through these two (school and personal hygine). I willing to let the others slide for now. These seem most important at the moment. Now if we can just get dh to "see the light". He feels everything is a big deal. I try to tell him to pick his battles, but he just doesn't get it. So we'll see how it goes. :)

Good luck! Sometimes I find the therapy does more for ME than it does for my son! :) (Especially in figuring out an action plan)

I think the two issues you picked are very important too.:) Kids will always remember the toys lol.I hope he can reconnect with him and get somewhere with him this time.I'm hoping your dh will see the light and realize too many struggles at once will make for one very unhappy camper.{{BIG HUGS}}
