[QUOTE="Indianamomof4, post: 89626, member: 4062"] I have ordered the books. I can't wait to start therapy tomorrow!!! He did not give me the specific therapies yet, we find that out tomorrow. I can tell you I had a moment this morning, when he realized he HAD to wear pants and not shorts. I knew it was going to happen as he is convinced NONE of his pants fit him "right". He was throwing things, screaming, crying. I was so frustrated and the bus was 10 minutes from arriving. I was laying in the foyer crying and I sat on the floor, grabbed him, and instead of freaking out on him to get a grip, I just held him. He fought me at first, but then I said, "It's ok. Calm down. It's ok." I immediately felt his body go less tense in my arms. I said, "Feel your heart beating so fast." He did. I said, "You have yourself all worked up about your pants, and by the time you get to school I promise you will have forgotten that they weren't just right". He said, "But they go past my feet on my shoes, and I hate that." I said, "But your shoes will feel it, honey, not you. You won't feel it." He sat there for another minute and calmly said, "Can I have a cookie?". LOL I realize that my freaking out on him, putting pressure on to get ready were just overstimulating him and making it worse. By the way, mine is in 2nd grade too. [img]:smile:[/img] [/QUOTE]
