[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 518671, member: 11791"] I get it. It's my difficult child all over again. NOBODY would believe us. But... between the motor skills issues and the un-diagnosed Auditory Processing Disorders (APD)... school almost killed him. The argument - over and over - was that because he "can", he therefore "can" [B]all of the time[/B]. Wrong. The ODD behavior? It's survival instinct. They KNOW too much is being asked of them. And having the one-on-one isn't necessarily the answer - that just becomes the "slave-driver", and problems will then show up in other ways. How many minutes a day to they spend with fine motor skills activities? writing, drawing, painting, cutting, using "tiny" blocks, etc.? We figured out - about grade 4 or so - that five minutes out of an hour was MAX for our difficult child. [/QUOTE]
