[QUOTE="Mildred, post: 89902, member: 4221"] Its such a pleasure to come back and see that people are caring about my problems - which honestly, sound small compared to what I'm reading about what some of the rest of you are going through. difficult child's Occupational Therapist (OT) from 2 years ago used some brushing but we were never really taught how to do it. I guess I need to get a whole pile of books here - some interesting-sounding suggestions here! Yes, husband does spank, although since my last big (and loud) "discussion" he has changed difficult child once and didn't spank so maybe I scared him a bit! [img]:smile:[/img] We have also spanked for other things, though I personally don't think it helps at all - sometimes I get so frustrated and do it as a last resort. Of course, there are different definitions of spanking too - mine are usually a swat on the backside which is well padded with a pullup. I almost think the noise gets his attention more than the pain! And recently he has started [i]asking[/i] for a spanking! He'll lay on the couch or just turn his back to me and say, "spank me, spank me, please!". Now what is THAT all about!? I haven't played much with the eye contact thing yet, will have to see how he responds. Interesting idea on teaching him to read with whole words rather than the alphabet. I can tell I'm going to be getting some awesome ideas here! I have been reading other threads but don't feel like I have much experience to contribute. I feel like I'm a sponge, soaking it all up. Maybe someday I will be able to help others as well. [/QUOTE]
