How many openings are there for jobs such as this and are they confined to certain areas? I am not sure that these are jobs you would be able to find in just any town or city in America or the world for that matter and I think that is what Temple was getting at. Just my 2 cents worth.

Sure enough he got caught because usually the NT will do the bullying where he won't be seen but the ASpie will do the fighting back in full view and will get suspended for fighting back. Cian got out of school suspension once for three days and in school twice. By the way that goes on the school records. And then if you are lucky as my son is the stupid hospital writes it in their records as expulsion from school! Anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She really pushed the idea that we need to get " these kids " focused into areas that will serve them well into adulthood. I would think an interest in video games can be a great starting point for introduction to computers and the world of programming.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 Hey Kelli, Good for you. It sounds like you have found the right doctor. He is right. With proper treatment, AIH can be managed, and you can have a normal life and live to a ripe old age. All that you described your doctor telling you was told to me by my doctor, and I have always felt he understands AIH. I have been treated with the usual Pred. and Imuran, and am now on 50 mg. Imuran only, and my blood tests have been normal for the last nine months. Good health to you. Pat from MN _________________________________________________________________ Don’t just search. Find.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2005 Report Share Posted July 16, 2005 > I was wondering HOW MUCH magnesium citrate you take to get a laxative > effete????? For me, it depends. If I am taking supplements that pull magnesium, I will need a LOT of magnesium. I have taken more than 1000mg sometimes. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 16, 2005 Report Share Posted July 16, 2005 >> I was wondering HOW MUCH magnesium citrate you take to get a laxative > effete????? It is slightly different for each person, depending on how low you are. The rule of thumb is just to keep increasing the magnesium dose until you get regular loose stools. That is your personal maximum. Then cut the dose back a bit so the stools are of a good consistency regularly. My son needs 400-600 mg a day of mag. He uses the Source Naturals mag malate tablets. It works out to 3 in the morning and 3 at night. The therapeutic dose of magnesium is around 1000 mg of magnesium a day, so that gives you some ranges. I've read the same technique applies for vitamin C (increase until you get regular loose stools and then drop back a bit). . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 Just a few thoughts, 1. is the work appropriate to his abilities. Often we assume that someone has all the prerequisite skills and once really checking after they have " failed " find that a step was skipped. Cant he difficulty be scaled down until compliance increases and then gradually increased? Or one or two problems on a work sheet vs ten. 2. Can he have limited choices in his environment? Which worksheet first? What pencil to use out of two or three? 3. Is there a visual schedule so he has some knowledge of his routine? VERY IMPORTANT 4. More fun or attention for complying than rejecting, Make sure the talking, cajoling, threatening, sighing, are minimal when he isn't doing what he should and happy positive when he is positively engaged. OK, those are my ideas. Karyn In a message dated 9/19/2007 8:54:06 P.M. Central Daylight Time, writes: Posted by: " CMancari@...

Nick started Junior High this year and until yesterday was having a really great year! Well, I guess it actually started Monday (didn't change back into his regular clothes after gym, just put them over top his gym clothes). Yesterday, the gym teacher found him with an empty bottle of TAG (so he threw it away, turns out Nick told me he found it on the floor).? I forget what else he did yesterday.? (oops, now I remember!? He ran from his aide, she escorts him from point A to point B due to his tendency to wander off and then kicked at her once they got to the special ed room.)? Today, he went to the bathroom during gym (with permission but took too long and the teacher went after him {found him playing?} so he didn't get to play basketball at the end of class), after class he flopped on the ground and started crying saying he wanted his daddy.? They finally convinced him to go to science and he did well in class once he got there.? Later as the special ed teacher was walking him somewhere he took off down the hall to go see someone (after questioning Nick it was his OT Ms. Becki).? Some of the behaviors I can kinda figure out what triggered it, but the problem is he knows it isn't appropriate behavior.

Argh. My son, Isaac (8 DS) isn't wanting to cooperate and do any work at school. He's been in school since August 17 and I'd say he's only really had 5 or 6 days where he would work for the aide/teacher. He just likes to push his papers away, will start throwing crayons/pencils, put his hand in his mouth or put his head down. This is incredibly frustrating because every day the notebook comes home and it says things like, " He just won't work " " Didn't work at all " " Didn't want to read " " Very hard day " " Got in trouble for throwing his work " " Had to sit in the hall because he wouldn't work " " pushed everything off his desk " My personal favorite note was the one that said, " He ran away from me two times but I caught him. I need to lose some weight or stop smoking. " Anyway, he just can't seem to be motivated by incentives..Anyway, he just can't seem to be motivated Anyway, he just can't seem to be motivated by incentives..<WBR>..he shuts down easily....very stubborn....<WBR>.The aide is very creative in trying to get him to work. She varies the activities pretty quickly to keep him as interested as she can. She often takes away his chair and has him stand up if he isn't working (he doesn't like to stand). She'll take him for a walk around the school when he gets disruptive. She is also sending home all of the worksheets that he won't do at school and asks that we work on them at home. He do We know he can learn, but it just seems like it has to be on HIS schedule or he will do absolutely no work. Unfortunately, his schedule only allows for tiny increments of productivity!W Any suggestions would be appreciated.Any sug Jill Mom to Isaac (8DS) and Lydia (14) ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
