Re: and new cell phone and security issues

[Guest guest]

just uses the arrow buttons and then hits the green phone (send

button) to call who ever is highlighted, mom, dad, nicholas and this works very

well for us, are your buttons big enough to put pics on or are you just putting

them on the back with the coordinating number? Another thing we and our scl

provider are trying to teach nathan is to say where he is at when he calls

us, eg:hy-vee, library or read the street number and letters, even if its one

digit at a time, so we can locate him if he has wandered somewhere, but

mostly when he calls us he just asks about pizza hut, lol. we will keep trying

though. shawna

So we bought a cell phone. His OT is going to try to help him

use it.

We programmed in three numbers: HOME, MOM and DAD. One, two, three.

Simple!

We also put lots of info, like name and number printed on back of

phone.

I was thinking of tiny pictures of Home, Mom and Dad on buttons.

If the OT makes this work for him, I will hire her full time.

We just thought the security and safety of learning to use a cell

phone mught be good.

If anyone has other safety ideas let me know.

knows his phone number but will not readily give out. Sigh..

Difficult for him to understand the neccesity at times.
