[QUOTE="Janna, post: 106994, member: 2737"] Dylan's hand has to be held for everything. He has to be shown how to do every simple task, over and over again, many times, until he truly "gets it". The shampoo bottle, for example. I'd have to go up to the shower with him, show him exactly how much to use, night after night, probably for weeks, until he'd get it. I can never assume he would know something ahead of time. And it has to be grinded into his head daily. I can't say "make sure you're good on the bus today, Dylan", or "remember to have manners at lunch today, Dylan". I have to TAKE him to lunch, day after day, waiting for him to pick up on how IM doing it, for him to do it. It's exhausting. Some kids just don't get it until you beat it into their brain. And some, no matter how many times you say it, just don't ever get it. I'm sorry. [/QUOTE]
