Help! Now that we have an official diagnosis (other than ADHD) I am hoping that this meeting will be a little easier than previous meetings. The argument that I have gotten from the school in the past is that his behaviors do not warrent special services or an IEP because they do not affect him acad...

My ds is staying the week at Grandma's (btw- I miss him like crazy and we go get him tomorrow-can't wait!) Anyway... I guess Grandma took him to see Transformers today. So, I asked him what it was about and he said, "I really can't say..." Meaning, he didn't know how. In my reading, I found out this...

EDIT: When I clicked this on the main page I didnt realize it took me to parents board. Sincerest apologies. No need to apologize- I am finding that a lot of the best answers are from those that actually experience the issues I'm talking about! So, thank you for helping! I will suggest that to ds. ...

After reading KimJ's post about social stories (I think that's an awesome thing, btw) I got to thinking about all the social nuances that my ds probably doesn't understand and I never realized it. He's away on vaca with Grandma this week, but when he gets back, I'm considering a couple of ideas to w...

Yup! Scared here too. My ds was in a class for 3 years with the same teacher. But, this year- new teacher and new school. 8O Old teacher was a wonderful person and really tried to use the ideas I gave her (no diagnosis at the time). Don't know how this year will pan out yet.....

We have used the brushing technique on my ds. (sensory seeking) It has been known to calm him at times. Other times...it is like the previous poster said, he has to be receptive to it. To say it will "cure" sensory issues- I think is truly a false statement. But, it has helped my son when he's begun...

I am very new at researching things related to AS. I have a question for the Aspies out there, since my son is unable to verbalize certain things. When ds is out of control/hyperactive, and I can NOT calm him down- there is a look in his eye. Actually, its not really a look....its not anything at al...
