zaks progress!!!! and advice needed on spinning!!!!

[Guest guest]

thank u all for your messeges of support they mean alot to us!! as in

answer to vickys question is zaks school an autistic school the answer

is no its a special needs school they do have a class especially 4

autism but zaks not in that class ( why i really dont know) and to b

honest im fighting every other corner at the moment so really dont have

the time to push for this , i would do if zak wasnt responding so well

in the class hes in , and also zaks teacher is wonderful and now works

along side me and if i push 4 this i run the risk of a new teacher whom

again i have to convince i know whats best 4 my son lol its such a

mountain we all have to climb lol ( wish id of known at the beginning

how high the mountain would b as id of brought some deacent climbing

boots lol)!!!! now i need some advice we are doing so well in all

areas but 1 area zak cannot let go of is the spinning ( he spins

objects not himself) his fav is the washing machine!! hes done this

since he was 2 years old so now we think it might b more habit than

stim although when he is spinning things or watchin something spin the

old traits come back like eyes in the top of the head the noises etc ,

any ideas will b gladly recieved, also is it best to take aways all

spinnig things ie toys and that (cold turkey lol) or gradually? lots of

love nikki and zak xxxxxx
