[QUOTE="klmno, post: 187430, member: 3699"] Praising- now that is a very good point. I actually even brought this up to the IEP team. We (me at home and them at school) often have more expectations on difficult child in winter quarter when school is trying to teach all the kids everything they need to know for the spring testing and I have been doing this, too, plus I do it when I feel like we are in a time crunch to get things done before vacation, holidays, company coming, etc. On top of it, these are the times that we (I) forget to acknowledge and praise all the small steps he makes. Thank you for the reminder! He did do an excellent job cleaning out his closet. It's just that the rest of his bedroom was a disaster and I had wanted a straightened room, even if it didn't end up looking like we'd just done spring cleaning. He got hung up on one small area and over-did that. That's ok- I have to mull over what that means and watch for things like that when he's working on school projects. I did notice last year on an art project, he had about 1/4 completed perfectly, but there was no time left to do anymore. [/QUOTE]
