Mom? What's a difficult child?
*T* who has the same diagnosis as K with added possible Spectrum and questionable Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD), Adopted Mom doubts both of those and thinks it is just the same as K... Anyway he has been having a horrible time in School.
I guess he is close to having whatever done, done when they get cafeteria privledges taken away?
So she is taken it upon herself to let him come to the class to *help her*. The way she is doing this is she chose another *better* child as a helper also, for him to model after, one that he likes. She chose K!!!
So they came to class and had lunch.... she made a big deal out of it, like it was a special thing. So the next day T and K got to invite someone else to eat lunch with them...
THe kids love it!!!! They eat and then get to do a special project or go to the playground. She tries to get T to stay in the class...
SO now it is such a big hit that all of the kids are coming into the class for lunch! It is optional, only if you want.
So K told me last night that she hopes she can keep going to the class instead of the Cafeteria, she said it is too noisy and causes too much chaos in her head and too bright. It confuses her.
I am so proud of her for being able to know this about herself.
I am also so happy that her Teacher is willing to do this for the kids...
She said she will do this as long as she does not have an IEP meeting or something else!!!
We need more teachers like this.
