[QUOTE="Andy, post: 409395, member: 5096"] I don't have any experience but maybe a small suggestion (not the answer but maybe a bit of a help along the way?). Google "Feelings Charts" to find a variety of different charts - many are visual - that maybe will help him by pointing out to you or giving you the words for some basic things he is going through. You can explain what each word means (some charts are for older kids, some for younger). You can help him form sentences with what he points out and have him repeat the sentences to you. I think it very important that he does repeat back to you. A simple, "yes, that is what I mean" is not going to help him feel comfortable saying the words next time. I would get him on that waiting list as soon as possible. You can always take him off when it is his turn if you don't think he needs the service any longer, but better on than off at this point.
