[QUOTE="lovelyboy, post: 529796, member: 8045"] Oh...I also wanted to mention regarding the Auditory Processing Disorders (APD).......I am no expert with this, but because my son struggles with this, I will just give some mommy advice....:) I noticed that when talking to my son.....I need to try and face him, so he can follow my mouth.......try and speak SLOWER....this helps allot! Also just one concept at a time.......give processing time.....ask feedback to make sure he understands, sometimes he hates this and just say...."I am not stupid!"...so its better to indirectly listen if you think he understood, by his respons.....they often hear the words incorrect.....The times when his answers sounds irrasional is often when they didnt understood correctly..... Also with giving written instructions, especially maths....he struggles to understand the instructions...For example...circle the one that is smaller than x and bigger than Z.....confusing! He might also struggle with comprehension tests....So make sure he understands his reading info....help him how to identify important info, exct. Hope this helps a bit! You might find that it will take a while and patience to change the way you speek to him.....Its almost like stepping back and making sure what you sead makes logic, simple sense! Oh...and talking with less background sounds.....put TV softer, or music softer....Also try not to talk to him 2 people at a time.....If he also has problems with direction identification of sound....maybe touch him or make sure you have his attention before talking..... He might easily get bored or irritated with to many verbal info and mentally switch of, because its overfloading his auditory system..... [/QUOTE]
