So, yesterday we went to FVSRA for an assessment. It was great. I learned a few things I didn't know about autism and my son. Maybe he was nervous, but I did appoligize for his gassy-ness while we were trapped in the tiny room for assessment! That was the only non-plus item yesterday..........I also learned last night that you never want to turn to a channel with a stock ticker and then switch channels or there will be pint-sized hell to pay!!!!! He loves the stock ticker....maybe we should get him interested in the stock market early? By the time he is old enough to buy or sell stock he will actually know what he is doing! (unlike mommy)
One thing that was suggested yesterday was to get him involved in some team sports (with a helper of course - at least to begin). Why oh why is that the most frightening thing I have heard recently? I am sure he would not be worried, or even notice the other parents staring and hopefully at his young age the kids won't notice anything, they will just want to play. The fear of the other parents is totally on me....I realize this. But it makes me feel like I am preparing for my first day at a new school. Who will be a friend? Who will make a big deal of our differences? Hopefully, my fears will not come to fruition but I just don't relish the idea of feeling like I have to explain "us".
Just a little rant for the day.......
