[QUOTE="cfa3, post: 493921, member: 6817"] Buddy: thank you. Viewed that way yes I can see the role of autism in my child's life. I guess the trouble I have always had with autism is that we have never fit in in any autism "Stuff", i.e., support groups, classrooms, online groups. i NEVER relate to the things the autism parents discuss. My son never fits in with kids with autism in support group meeting respite etc. confusing. I am also a part of a bipolar support online group and relate more to that just in the sense of the severity of the emotional issues, but dont relate in the sense that their kids are often "fixed" with medications, and mine is way off typical even at baseline, and sooooo immature, so I see us as in between and generally have related more to mental health stuff then autism. Anyhow, my son needs to be taught specific skills. Emotional coping, recognition, learning others' points of view, self regulation. We are now finally at the point that my son will accept taking deep breaths but thats it. He is very immature, ALWAYS being silly and goofy in an ADHD type way and so you cant just sit and talk to him. He will start poking at you or just get angry. He is VERY emotional, omg everything is a 10x magnified reaction, and extremely rigid. What I need to figure out how to plug in specific interventions into the IEP. Be it different approaches, therapeutic approaches, interventions, social skill building etc. The thing is my son has good social skills, in other words he knows and gets how to approach a child, make friends, he is always like "what do you want to play?" very giving and compromising, but emotionally it all goes downhill.
