[QUOTE="nvts, post: 96954, member: 3814"] Hi! I picked up a book during the summer called "Social Stories". Now don't go run out and buy the book. Since your difficult child isn't autistic, this will be such a basic book (brushing teeth, taking a shower, etc) that it won't give you much that you can really bite your teeth into. Make sure that each story is written with a positive thrust. I started writing them for difficult child 1 and gave them to his therapist to check out. Once I finish them, I'm going to illustrate them with some graphics and actually make a book for him. Alright: [I]THEORETICALLY[/I], I'll make a book for him! I'd be happy to share. Just let me know. Keep in mind, most of our kids have the self-esteem of a gnat. Positive reinforcement is really key, but with sincerity. difficult child 1 will call me on it if it seems phoney! Lil' bugger!!! Let me know if I can help! Beth [/QUOTE]
