Guest guest Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Hi Everybody,Just something that has helped my son:I have a six year old who hates writing, drawing etc. What we do is if he wants something special: Chocolate, candy or a toy, we ask him to write it down for us. He gladly writes it because he wants it so badly. Also we make him write notes for me or his daddy of what he did that day (You can try that later on).My sons goes to Nova for vision therapy - this helps him with reading comprehension and writing.

Guest guest Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 Hi Mrs. Fry,What a great idea! Have you tried playing music or showing off the drawing in a special place or even framing them. I know this worked for a friend of mine.Mrs. VelizTo: sList Sent: Saturday, June 20, 2009 5:15:43 PMSubject: Writing Hi Everybody,Just something that has helped my son:I have a six year old who hates writing, drawing etc. What we do is if he wants something special: Chocolate, candy or a toy, we ask him to write it down for us.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Good idea for getting your son to write. I took my son to a developmental vision specialist a couple of years ago, and he prescribed bi-focal lenses and some eye exercises that really helped. With some autistic children, I have noticed they prefer to type out things on the computer rather than writing them by hand because of the different motor skills used in the different methods. My son says writing with a pen and paper " hurts his hand " while typing doesn't.
