[QUOTE="P-nut2004, post: 425450, member: 11740"] Busy: Most morning she wakes up before me but the first thing I do is give her morning medications, they never seem to really do much before school. We get up at 6 and leave by 7 or 7:30 depending on the day, on later days she is just calming down when I drop her off. She takes her concerta & zoloft in the mornings and I have said from the start that the zoloft seems to combat the concerta but if she takes it later she has even more trouble sleeping. Malika: When she is in one of these moods where she is intent on annoying someone it does not matter how many times you ask her politely to stop she will not. Eventually I feel like I have to enforce some limits as ignoring her does not work either, it only makes her more persistent. We are using a behavior chart with stars too, she gets three strikes before she loses her star for the day on a goal (she has 5 daily goals) but in her mischievous moods she finds it funny for me to go put a strike on her chart as if she has achieved her goal of irritating me. Expressive language disorder (also referred to as auditory to verbal processing difficulties) as it was explained to me by her psychiatrist is similar to dyslexia but with hearing instead of reading. So just as dyslexics see letters & numbers differently & have to learn to 'interpret' it, she hears things differently. We thought she just had a slight speech disorder but testing found the real issue.

As far as school goes she does not learn well when the teacher stands at the board & teaches because she only understands what is written down, she has to have 1 on 1 time with each step written out for her and then she gets it and you dont have to explain it again.
