Guest guest Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Trisha is more comfortable by herself unless she invites you to participate with her. She will share most everything except her " special " belongings and then she gets upset if you touch it. They have been working on getting her to participate in art and music with a some progress but usually they take her to another room, during speech they are bringing someone into her " area " and she doesn't seem to like that. I also am wondering which child they are bringing in, the one they tried to get her to eat lunch with at first she doesn't like for some reason and gets very upset when she comes near her. There is another girl that she likes and they have lunch together with no problems and Trisha is always calling her name. I'll have to see who they are bringing into the speech session. Part of what they are working on is to get her to communicate to her peers. Carol Trishasmom She isn't typical, She's Trisha! If you always do what you always did, you'll always get what you've always gotten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Carol: Ray is a lot like that. He really can't interact with peers. He seems to need everything to be about him. He does some things with my stepgrandkids but didn't participate in school related things. That is one of the reasons why we didn't go for a vocational program after school was over - just created his own community involvement. He is more comfortable in that type of situation.
