[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 196037, member: 1233"] I think it sounds like a great book. My own difficult child is also totally mainstreamed and it is a HUGE accomplishment. He is totally iwth other kids for the day, AND not in jail. We were pretty sure it would be one or the other at several points. Interventions are EVERYTHING - fight as hard as you have to and get them in place. I think it is sad that Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) diagnosis's open up doors that other diagnosis's like bipolar don't. Esp because some of the same interventions can really help other disorders. I am sorry your husband doesn't want to hear about any of this. Hopefully you can manage to get the main points of the more helpful things across to him. At one point I negotiated a set time every week to talk about "this stuff" with my husband. This stuff being aspergers and interventions needed/given at school. Just having 30 minutes twice a week really really helped our marriage. Some weeks we needed a lot more, some weeks we needed less, but knowing when we were going to discuss things really helped us both. Well, it helped me shut up about it, and helped open his ears and keep him from walking into another room to get away from it.Know what I mean?? Thanks for sharing the book with us. [/QUOTE]
