[quote=Anonymous]My child with ASD just started his second week of college classes and seems to be doing well and actually developing a few early friendships. :) My younger child with profound LDs and ADHD is getting ready to start his junior year. He did well last year with his first AP class and this summer I am teaching him how to drive. It will be a longer learning curve,but my prefvous fears of him not being able to learn to how to drive seem to be at bay, he just needs more practice than the average dude. Plus, he is finally able to read the sports section of the newspaper. :) I channel Dory from 'Finding Nemo", just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming. Think tortoise, not hare. Don't forget to take care of yourself (and your relationship with your DH and your other children)and don't forget to make sure everyone gets fun activities and not just therapies. Sometimes concetrating on the strengths helps too. Balancing acts are my specialty now and I seem to have gift for breaking things up into smaller achieveable steps. These are skills that need to be developed, they do not come naturally. [/quote]
