[QUOTE="buddy, post: 491070, member: 12886"] Yeah, even here, that is hard to come by, very specialized. But at least there are some kinds of things you can do on your own. RDI therapy really was developed more in response to fill in the short comings of ABA for kids with autism, but it is based on building the intrinsic rewards of interacting and relationships with others. Now principals with The Explosive child, RDI and such methods are being combined more and more by some. It usedto be you could use the website to figure out activities to do with your child to work on interactions and with his not really needing the skills as much as the activities to develop positive feelings and relationship with mommy, it could be a good resource for you...the books are not expensive (or used to not be) if they dont have it on the website..... I was thinking they could be useful activities used with a therapy idea called TheraPlay.... it is not play therapy.... it is a specific Attachment Disorder therapy. Q and I did this in the actual formal way they do it with video cameras, two therapists etc. It was really good for us... So, they have a book ... Some of it seems obvious, but of course until we do it systematically it is hard to really know how it can impact us... He loves attention so would probably like this. When Q was pretty low verbal and did not understand hurts, one activity we did was looking on each others arms and legs and if we found a mosquito bite or bruise, we put lotion on it, rubbed it, put bandaids on etc... used nice words etc. all in practice for how to use nice words and also it just gave us a game to play together at his level and good moments together. Other simple things like swing games, holding the swing and his needing to say some silly thing then a joint laugh or whatever... each depending on the kid. AS he got older we did older things. Could be interesting to see if you can get any ideas with this. [/QUOTE]
