Elliott is really struggling with anxiety right now.  He held it together at school but completely feel apart at bedtime last night.  He was just sobbing and sobbing. He's so stressed out about so many things,  I don’t even know where to begin with trying to help him. My sister made an honest mistake,  and truthfully, it wasn't really a mistake.  When Elliott was in the Hamptons last weekend,  he found this little knick knack that he wanted.  My sister promised him that she would pick it up for him and send it in the mail.  The problem was that was store was over an hour away and she works during the week.  She made the trip and picked it up but couldn't mail it right away because of work…

Gavin's good day at school was followed immediately by problems at therapy and problems after therapy. During the car ride home,  Gavin was very rude and disrespectful towards Lizze. It got to the point that Emmett and Elliott begged him to stop talking. We met with Dr. Patti and discussed Gavin recent behaviors. She is very concerned about the Gavin's sexual aggression and inappropriateness. We have to keep Gavin separated from his brothers as much as humanly possible.  Our primary concern is for Elliott and Emmett's safety. Wednesday night we meet with Dr. Patti again, this time with Gavin. It won't be a pleasant appointment but one that obviously needs to happen...again.

The school year has just begun and already the schedule is getting a bit crazy. Tuesday's and Wednesday's,  we have to pick the boys up from school 30 minutes early. We then have to race to get 2 of the 3 boys to speech and occupational therapy.  I hate that we have to pull the kids out early, in order to get her to therapy.  I especially dislike having to pull them out on their first day back. :-( However, at least their able to go to ther. apy and the school is working with us.. It could always be worse.  This was posted via WordPress for Android, courtesy of Samsung’s Galaxy S III. Please forgive any typos. I do know how to spell but auto-correct hate me. Please join…

I was wondering what TV shows your your kids are watching? Sometimes it's hard to find something that is appropriate for a child to watch anymore. Perhaps we can share what our kids watch and help each have other to find appropriate entertainment for our kids. This was posted via WordPress for Android, courtesy of Samsung’s Galaxy S III.

This one is pretty simple.  Does your child with #Autism benefit from animals? Does your child have a favorite pet,  maybe a dog or a cat?  Has this pet helped your child in anyway? For example, does you child have a special bond or relationship with their pet? Please share your experience in the comments?  I would love to hear your stories.  :-) This was posted via WordPress for Android, courtesy of Samsung’s Galaxy S III. Please forgive any typos.
