Guest guest Posted April 29, 2000 Report Share Posted April 29, 2000 Hi all. My name is O and I live in Iowa. My Aspergers/add/sid son (9 yrs) was a 1 lb, 3 oz. premie born at 24 weeks. I also have a very grown up 5 year old girl. I was a lurker on the other list until the list owners meltdown, then I posted a couple of times, only to receive some rather nasty email from him and his " alternate personalities " . I've got to admit, watching him go off the deep end made me sad. He is after all an aspie and was obviously exhibiting that rigid way of thinking that I've come to know in my own son. He insists on certain things being done only one way, no exceptions. Anyway, my dh and I are still trying to figure out the what's best for our son. Currently he is in the 2nd grade mainstreamed into a reg ed classroom. He has a full-time associate who is a wonderful person. The school he goes to is a school of the arts, so in addition to the normal curriculum, the also have drama, dance, violin, etc. They also have a reg ed AND spec ed in each room. Enough about me. Thank you for starting this list. I'll try to be a more active participant. o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
