[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 574783, member: 11847"] I have called the therapist today and left him a voivemail. All I said is that it is not a good match for our family and that he could call me back as I really don't like saying that through a voicemail. I don't know if he will call back, I'm just trying to be considerate. I called the Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) center today in order to get some tips on what I try to do and our case manager gave me a lot of ideas that match Buddy's suggestions! ;) husband and I set some time today to talk about frustrations and what strategies that V can use. We all acted what upset looks like and came up with: go to your room for some quiet time, go in the swing or squeeze hands into fists several times. The problems: V was really not sure what we tried to explain! He claims to never recalls his tantrums. He just kept on saying I don't know to everything and almost being upset by the conversation. I believe it was a bit too abstract for him... I'm currently making some picto cards to give him a visual. Like always, it's all about getting the rights words, the right time and the right pictures... It will definitely take several trials. [/QUOTE]
