Guest guest Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 I have been amember of this group for a few years since my son was diagnosed at 4 1/2. He is now 7 and in mainstream first grade. When I first posted he couldn't get into the preschool disabled program because " smart kids don't have special needs. " has Asperger's but is also considered nuerologically impaired due to birth trama. He has low muscle tone and is delayed in all motor areas. He also has been diagosed with motor dispraxia. When he first started in special ed we were different because he was soooooo smart. Last year in K he had areally rough time and was hospitalized twice with gastroindecdinal problems due to stress. He has reflux & a hiatal hernia. When I first started in this group I thought our problems were minor and nobody could relate because nobody responded to my posts. Now that GW is getting older I see more similarities. He talks about how broing things are and he acts out. I have had 2 caseworkers in the past year so it is hard to get any rythme going. is lucky because his K teacher decided he should stay with her when he moved to first. He thinks everything is " boring " and why can't these kids get it? He is teased and acting out. Fortunately he doesn't know when he is teased.
