[QUOTE="lovelyboy, post: 545276, member: 8045"] Terry...LOL....I am also not sure what on earth happens at a birthday ring.....All I know is that the teacher told every parent that each child will have a b/day ring.....We can attend and we only need to bring a cupcake for each child! I think they sit in a circle and sing to the one having the b.day....That a big fuss is made of that specific child and so on. It doesnt even help to prepair my son to the amount of stimuli....he wont be able to tollerate it! He is struggling with normal ring time when they discuss things or read a story! During this time he needs to wear his weighted vest and sit a bit further to the back so he wont bother other kids by fidgiting, rocking, exct! He used to pull his shirt over his arms and head and hide inside it! They made him a little time out table....they threw a big cloth over a small table where he could go and sit if he feels overwhelmed! They even need to dim the lights during the day to lessen the light for his eyes! It wont help to really sit down and discuss alternatives....we could try, but because of his very poor auditory processing and lack of communicationskills, he wont be able to understand or express himself....I started to teach him to say no and show with his hand and say stop.....when things get to much! Regarding the medications.....if you google it Risperdal is common to use in kids with low thresh hold, who easily gets irritated and frustrated....some even uses it to treat ADHD.....So targetting 2 things at once! It's more to regulate emotions! But he just seems so little!!!!! Teacher did email me back and said we need to have a chat on Thursday....that she might have some ideas how to handle the situation! I really hope so, because I am sure my son is not the first and only child who they ever had who couldnt sit still!!!!! And I am not willing for him to feel " not good enough" to be excluded from the others during fun times! [/QUOTE]
