[QUOTE="jean242, post: 520191, member: 14300"] Thank you all very much. She hasn't seen an Occupational Therapist (OT) specialist since Kindergarten but she still is in speech. She can talk and she loves to talk a little too much at times but it's just so hard to understand her sometimes. I can 98% of the time understand the rest of the time I tell her slow down. She is very immature for her age, she's ten but acts more like an 8yr old. I have her in Juniors and somedays I think it's a blessing she acts so young after hanging with her troop for an hour lol I am over the shock of it all now I am in the let's do this thing mode. I want the report, I want to get the ball rolling now. Unfortently Spring Break is next week so not much I can do until after. She does want me to read to Bry often so I am going to the library on Saturday with her and we are going to pick out a lot of books for her to practice with and for me to read to her. We have books here but they are at a 4-5th grade level-fine for me to read them to her not for her to read. I have let the teachers know what the diagnoses was and that a meeting will be called after the break. She has been on an IEP since Kindergarten. I have never heard of an advocate. What are they and what do they do? She is very bright and I love to argue with her just to hear her point on things. Drives my husband insane but she's an adult in training and she needs to state her thoughts. There are certain things that I wish I remembered from the meeting but I will get the report soon, certain learning things are going to be different for her.
