It breaks out social skills in a systematic and developmentally appropriate way and will give you ideas for your son's IEP, if and when it is determined that he should indeed have an IEP. Best of luck to you! These are some of the most charming, intelligent, frustrating children in the world! I say frustrating because it is often difficult to fathom why, when something is repeated over and over, the child 'fails' to learn it. The child has NOT failed! They are just wired differently and it may take a very long time to teach certain things.Shahannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12139283962339170266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1276679151860661415.post-58493646713010959042012-05-01T22:18:04.203-04:002012-05-01T22:18:04.203-04:00Oh wow, it's as if you wrote my story!

I can't imagine how tough it is to be on your journey. Switching from a stimulant to non-stimulant medicine is a big change, I really hope that it helps with side-effects that you may have been seeing.
