[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 233682, member: 805"] OK, now I'm going to offer another opinion here. Perhpas what the goal of this kind of thing is to teach the kids life skills. The remainer of that 1/2 day with the hikes and games could be physical exercise (goodness knows that many of the medications our difficult children are own cause weight gain AND exercise is great for depression) and teaching the kids the benefit of getting out and moving so it becomes part of their life and the games could be socially based - teaching kids to take turns, to pick sides, to share, to loose and win gracefully, etc. Who knows..... I think the teeth brushing issues is interesting because so many members on this board over the years have complained and bemoned how unaware their difficult children were with hygeine. Perhaps this is a way to teach these kids important it is to take care of their bodies. Just another perspective - kinda like a half life skills program and half academic program. Sharon [/QUOTE]
