[QUOTE="slsh, post: 296157, member: 8"] Woody - I think this is an *extremely* positive update!!! Sounds like you made a very good choice in terms of placement. I just fume when I hear about schools whose policy is suspension/expulsion of such young kiddos. I think it sets up an awful precedent of school being a bad place for the kids - it's almost impossible to undo that. So bravo to you for being proactive!!! I love that he remembered the allowance board even when it was out of sight. I think that is an extremely good sign for all of you! ;) When our kids respond well to reinforcements and incentives, it really does make life much easier. You might want to consider making changes on the board gradual, rather than one drastic change. It might help him continue to have the opportunity to succeed at tasks while you're adding new (maybe more difficult?) ones. Sorry that biomom hasn't contacted him - that's so hard on him, I'm sure. Hopefully the visitation stuff will get worked out for you guys, without too much drama (fingers crossed). Overall, a truly fantastic update! Sounds like you're doing a very thoughtful job of helping him settle in.:bravo: [/QUOTE]
