[QUOTE="buddy, post: 515390, member: 12886"] 100% agree. when a therapist has been around for a long time they are used to rules and regs changing, but the reality is that the nature of people doesn't change. The needs of difficult child's do not change. For me, over the years how to write goals and objectives has changed so many times. And in the private settings, therapists have to word things in a way to allow insurance to cover it. A goal and the objectives to reach the goal are really to be samples that reflect overall change in the client. Most often NOT the be all/end all target. Using my profession, if a child has the problem of a "receptive language delay/disorder" then the goals selected are those that represent skills one would be able to have if one had better receptive language abilities. Not that they only learn that ONE GOAL. It is like teaching to a test in the schools. Really we want the kids to be learning the big picture. The questions on the test are samples of that bigger knowledge, not inclusive of everything that the child should be learning. So, I hope the therapist can just nod and agree and then do what she knows needs to be done. Really hoping ONE thing can happen right for you guys. [/QUOTE]
