Guest guest Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 I just got a package in the mail from the ABA provider we have chosen. This was a " welcome " packet with all the information as a new client. We are starting ASSESSMENTS in 2 weeks (15 hours of it over 3 weeks) and then starting the program. In the packet, it states that we must have a dedicated space/room for the child(ren). We have one twin getting services through the regional center, the other was dropped at 3 because of PDDNOS but I am fighting that. It's possible he may NOT get services right away. We currently live in a 1380sqft 3BR apt and are putting a bid on a MUCH smaller house to own - it's 3BR and and 1032sqft. (crazy, I know. We have the twins, us and our 13yo son. The twins share a room. We are trying to buy in our area because we like it here, but also that the housing prices have not dropped dramatically; we could potentially build equity quickly, but it can take awhile. The loan we have will be LESS than what we are paying in rent now! It is our hope that we can build on to the house later for more space and we had our contractor look at it today.) All that to say: how far can the ABA company take their " rules " of space? I mean, obviously, we need SEPARATE space for TWO kids as the instructors can't talk over each other and the kids would be distracted...but if you don't have the space, you don't have the space. What can you do? What has been your experience? Thanks! Le Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
