If you have a child with Sensory Processing Disorder, you might want to check out that comment on my Parents, Storming the Gates post, which suggests, among other things, that kids with sensory sensitivities ought to just suck it up. Perhaps you'd like to enlighten the commenter? Nicely, please, but ... wow.
On a more positive note, a post on the forum asks for advice on training childcare professionals to work with children with special needs, something I think we can all agree is much-needed. If you have some places to point this poster, please go on the forum and share your experience and information.
I have really hard time to train my 6 year old daughter. She has Down syndrome. She is going Potty both for small and big business, but only when we set her on the toilett by schedule. She is not telling us when she has to go. She is not bothered when she has accidents but goes when we set her on the toilett. When asked she always says no only sometimes she goes by herself. I don’t know is there something we can do diffrent. We praise her everytime she goes and give her awards. How much time does she need to she goes by herself?
