[quote=Anonymous] OP - You did good to post because most Moms will see it and appreciate an understanding view. I just nominated a front line worker in our community for a major award because for 25 years he has worked with all individuals with all kinds of disabilities and challenges to help them acquire skills to the best of their abilities in recreation settings and social skills classes of all kinds. Why ---- to be better able to participate in typical functions and activities in their communities. A key point is that it is not that an idnvidual with real challenges can't learn a skill, but rather one can transfer it to different situations. This Mom is doing the right thing to take her son to events he will enjoy, but still might need some redirection to learn how to respond in things he does enjoy doing like going to a band concert. This individual that I am recognizing always has high expectations of all individuals with disabilities and does not condescend or lower the bar. [/quote]
