[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 466547, member: 3419"] Welcome, Ktllc. Welcome to NC/America from France! My heart breaks for your little one. You seem to be doing many of the right things, and I think you should continue with-Occupational Therapist (OT). I agree with-Insane, that a bunch of little things, done consistently, VERY consistently, make a huge difference. I also like Confuzzled's idea to do a visual picture. Show him the clock, draw a picture of a clock, etc. (Ooops, just went back and read about the watch. Great minds think alike. :) ) When my son was little, he would freak out when we'd say we're going on vacation and staying at a condo or hotel. I finally came up with-the idea of giving him an online tour of the room and grounds. The first time he seemed calmer, the second trip even calmer, and by the third trip, he said, "That's all? Just normal rooms?" and walked away. Ta-da! Okay, it took a few yrs, but it worked. :) Also, he didn't know what the word "vacation" meant until we went to Disney one year. All of a sudden, he said, "Are we on vacation?" "Yes." "Can we go on vacation again?" lol! You will come up with-many of your own ideas, but don't let his anxiety make you anxious, Know what I mean??
