sherry,

Have you ever used dttrainer with him? www.dttrainer.com is basically aba on

the computer. You would use the same format to address behavioral issues that

this program uses for acadmics.

Also, the book Steps To Independence is a great book regarding behavioral

issues. It takes you step through step on setting up a reward system, toileting

issues etc.

I just wanted you to know you are not alone. Hopefully, one or both of these

resources will be helpful to you.

You can find a local behavioralist at

www.http://www.bacb.com/pages/bcba_stand.html. You might want to get your own

behavioralist as the district will only get a small snapshot of the issues. a

standard fba is a great start, but I would build my team with my own bcba.

I wish I could homeschool! I'm a single, divorced mom with a pretty

non-involved ex, and I work full-time as an appellate attorney so working in

homeschooling on top of that would be very difficult, but the thought has

crossed my mind more than once, I can tell you! I had a cousin who wound up

homeschooling her son with autism and he did much better than in the school!

Josh does have private PT (along with what school does - they just talked to

each other today before Josh's PT session with the private and now at least they

will be on the same page!), and we're on a wait list for OT and speech. If

insurance could cover all of it, I'd say yippee, dump the school therapies

totally, but it doesn't, as we all know.

Thanks!

Sherry and Josh

Wow, sorry you are going through all that! I don't have an answer to all

the issues you have presented. Since you are open to ideas I thought I

would suggest homeschooling and private therapists if possible.

Hi Sharon -

Yes, indeed, Steps to Independence is a wonderful book! We've done a lot of

things using that book!

I don't know what dttrainer is but I will take a look. I'll take a look at the

behaviorist website as well.

Thanks!

Sherry and Josh
