[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 582856, member: 11847"] We watched a movie last night and since V fell asleep on the bean bag, we let Partner sleep on the coach. The dog was o the other coach :). Partner fell asleep so fast that he does not remember if he had dreams or not. In his "room" (open floorplan: both V and Partner have a section of the basement along with the sensory room. no walls to really seperate, just some shelves working as divider. there are windows and doors to walk outside, so the basement is really like living quarter. not scarry), there are plenty of night lamps. He does not want too much light otherwise he cannot sleep. Tried to have one of the dogs sleep with him but he won't stay... still a puppy and very attached to me. I might work on that with him though... Partner does have very good communications skills. He is my little intellectual :). If we teach him strategies, i know he will use them. We are not singers in my family, but maybe I could turn the noise machine on (nature sounds). Buy a few books about anxiety addressed to children? Now that it is going on, I am so glad I never let the boys be exposed to any kind of violence. Partner would not be able to handle it. He has such a gentle nature. husband was not too excited about my idea of scheduling counseling during school hours. He thinks V should go to afterschool care so I can take Partner afterschool... I have a feeling V would not be able to understand that... he has trouble putting other's needs before his own wants/needs. Still have not heard from the respite service... Whatever happens, now I need to schedule a meeting with Partner's teacher. pediatrician thinks she should know what is going on so she can help Partner controls his anxiety and distortions. Or maybe not control it but at least reassure him that he is safe. I think I'm in this school every day! They preach parental involvment: here they have it. LOL Thanks for sharing all of your ideas and experiences. Sometimes, I wonder if I'm going to end up with 3 special need kids... Kind of blows my mind. How does it even happen?? Maybe every family is like that but we just don't know? Buddy, I know it is not fair. But I find comfort in knowing that my kids are happy kids all in all. They have the most important thing: no life threatening condition and love from their family. That is a lot more than what some kids have... Maybe it is some self talk, but it helps! [/QUOTE]
