[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 30188, member: 1991"] G'day, Tracy. Enjoy the peace and quiet at work. We had 'fun' today, helping difficult child 3 break the back of his Geography assignment. I've not been impressed - the topic, globalisation, was just plain unsuitable (too 'waffly') for an autistic kid. I had to explain everything, over and over, using analogies. I mean, how do you explain about changes in the world to a kid who thinks everything always was and always will be, just as it is now? And that how it is for him is how it is for everybody? I really do think you DEFINITELY need theory of mind to discuss globalisation. And while difficult child 3 can now manage theory of mind, he's still fairly new at it and his abilities beyond this still need A LOT of work... Oh, well, that's the difference between correspondence school and home schooling. We've got cooler weather today; I'm told a lot of other areas are getting rain, but not us. Tomorrow is Tuesday - always too busy for us. Enjoy your Monday, everyone. Marg [/QUOTE]
