This is how I feel...Well I was working on my next book and now I'm at a complete standstill. I just don't know if what I've been writing will be helpful for older kids w/ SPD... I met w/ an OT and may partner with her to finish the book...
Ugh!
Maybe I'll scrap the SPD book and write a book on dealing w/ puberty. Most of the ones out there are written by professionals, which is not bad... However, when it comes right down to dealing w/ the day to day issues, it helps to have a first hand perspective. So if anyone knows of a good book to help your language delayed highly visual child learn about sex and puberty let me know. I'm wide open for one...

Sex, puberty.. was hoping to send my eldest to boarding school to deal with that... just as soon as I figure out how to pay for it... ::sigh::.. always a con.
The blog is down... but I still use the email addy.

Mmmm... we haven't reached that stage yet... now that's something I'm not looking forward to...
Glad to see you're back on deck - hope the writer's block clears soon!

Me too = head cold.

This is my calling card or link"Whittereronautism"until blogger comments get themselves sorted out.
I need a book to cope with a sensory seeking 9 year old, who is HFA, with an Autistic 6 year old brother, who is sensory avoiding but becomeing more sensory seeking and they CLASH!
They are just alike and will not give up on anything and they fight constantly and cry and yell and yet...
They say they love each other...hmmm.
All the puberty stuff is not what I want to think about right now.
Oh gosh, puberty ! I'll be curious to see if anyone has any suggestions for you. I'm still a few years away from needing that, but am already wondering how on earth we'll approach it. I'm already seeing some pre-teen moodiness in both of my older boys!
