[QUOTE="Second Time Around, post: 647525, member: 18739"] We're keeping our fingers crossed. It hasn't been a straightforward process. We've seen progress overall, but it seems to be two steps forward and one step back. Yesterday, he fell in the snow and hit the back of his head right after husband had dropped him off at school and had just driven away. Another parent saw him and brought him into the school.The nurse checked him out and he was ok, but he was in a bad mood all day. When I picked him up to go to neurotherapy, he complained that his dad had driven away and that he "fell and no one cared". I tried to explain that his dad wouldn't have seen him, but SS2 thought that husband should have been looking in the rearview mirror to watch him walk into school instead of looking ahead to where he was driving. And he completely discounted the parent to took him into the school and the nurse who examined him. "No one cared." He was fussy and negative and complained about having to do the sessions. About halfway through, he announced that he was "bored" and started sabotaging the session, by deliberately tensing up his muscles, which throws off the sensors. Then he asked for a piece of candy as a treat afterwards, but I told him that he couldn't have it because he hadn't been cooperative. His therapist is so good with him, though. She never loses her patience and she teases and cajoles him into getting something out of it each time, even if he's cranky and uncooperative. We will tell him that if he sabotages the session again, he will lose screen time as well as not getting any money for attending the session that week. Sigh… [/QUOTE]
