[quote=Anonymous]After 4 years of intense interventions (ABA/OT/ST/ shadows/ special ed preschool etc) with 2 kids with special needs, we have decided that we are going to take the kids on a 3-week vacation camping with the grandparents. They've made great progress with their own situations and at this point are both very stable and will continue with their weekly therapies/ special needs schools on our return. Our challenge is that our OT/ST practice says that if we miss 2 weeks in a row they will give our coveted after school time slot to another family. We will at that point be placed at the bottom of the wait list for an after school slot. I am really reluctant to do this because it took more than 4 months to get this slot in the first place. We will have never missed more than 1 week of therapies before for vacation and all of our absences have been due to illness. Is this type of policy typical? How do others manage longer vacations?[/quote]
