[QUOTE="SRL, post: 75942, member: 701"] Personally I wouldn't adjust medications that are working otherwise for handwriting. I'd be more inclined to think it's due to the increased demand that comes in higher grades. Occupational Therapist (OT) can help with many issues beyond hand strength. A good Occupational Therapist (OT) will observe a child in action and see a lot more than you and I can, simply due to their training and experience. I thought I was an observant parent but I was amazing at what the Occupational Therapist (OT) pointed out to me. I agree at this age, computers are the way to go but even for that you'll need an Occupational Therapist (OT) to arrange it at school. Plus handwriting can't be totally abandoned--schools are so heavy into worksheets these days that sometimes it's impractical. [/QUOTE]
