My son started doing Robotics after school...he enjoyed it very much, this very special to him....
Then last week When I went to fetchnhim after class, he was very upset and tearfull...he said that the teacher was holding his arm very tight and almost turn pinched it as he let go of his arm telling him that he is building the model wrong! My son said he didnt understand what was expected of him!
So on the one hand I want to teach my son to stand up for himself....not always have mommy running to fix things.....But on the other hand I thought maybe I need to just make an appointment with this guy(he is not part of the school, comes in to give classes) and explain to him a bit of difficult child 'problems' with tactile sensitivity and not always understanding instructions? I just didnt feel like labelling my child again, but maybe this is what needs to be done, because my son is afraid of this man now and doesnt want to go back to this class!
Any thoughts?
