[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 581699, member: 11791"] Susie... the how-to manual idea applies to all sorts of GFGness. Like... memory problems, planning/sequencing challenges, auditory processing disorders... If the person can read well enough to follow the instructions, AND cares enough to actually use it... it works. To the point that I actually write how-to manuals for [I]myself[/I], especially when learning a new skill. Nancy... I was horrid at learning all sorts of life skills (academically quite bright and practically useless). It took me to about age 25 to figure a lot of this out. The advantage of working on a how-to manual is that both you and she will repeat doing it the same way... which re-inforces learning. [/QUOTE]
