[QUOTE="'Chelle, post: 105991, member: 1161"] Hi Janna, nice to hear the good news on Brandon and Jared. I hope you can get the school to give Dylan that 1:1. Like MWM said, it's pretty essential for the Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids. My difficult child in grade 9 is finally realizing he does need the help and using his in class aide the way he should, especially for his English classes, and it's helping him so much. He'd been really struggling in English, and told me yesterday he had needed the help but isn't so much anymore. Some concepts are just harder for Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids to get, and need a lot more help getting to those points than a teacher can spare, so an aide is essential. The school district just never likes the cost of a 1:1. My difficult child's teachers LOVE having his aide, but it's always gotta be justified to the money people who are reluctant. The shirt chewing and head banging sounds so much like anxiety. It's the kind of thing my difficult child did and his was all anxiety related, mostly school. Dylan's been through so many medications, he's probably been on some for anxiety and don't know if they helped. I know they did help my difficult child, and he learned to cope with things and is now off medications. Hopefully they can figure out therapy or something to help him deal with this aspect. [/QUOTE]
