She has excess energy that needs to be channeled and I need the exercise. My daughter runs away and not in straight line when I have to chase her. I'm afraid she'd run in front of car. Walking a dog might be another way to distract her but you've said you daughter ignores or fears dogs. We can't get a pet because we'd like to move so that's just a hassle with an animal with us.

The insurance rules have changed, I've been told, to make it easier to get coverage for various therapies, and Janey's school day is a lot shorter this year, which leaves us more time for therapies. You are so right that it can feel great to just have someone to bounce ideas off of! And I agree about the smearing, although I hope Janey doesn't figure out I said that somehow!

I would rather have poo smearing (which she also does) than screaming. <br /><br />Just a question, do you have any therapists working with Janey outside of school? We've managed to get on a waiver which awards O a sum of money per year and we've been using it towards behaviour therapy. It's definitely helped. At the very least it's nice to have someone else to bounce ideas off of. I find with O, it's normally all about troubleshooting.Roxy Simmonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02430114109029431053noreply@blogger.com
