[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even more helpful than the diagnosis, is letting the team at aftercare know strategies to use with your son. Does he need a quiet place to calm down? Someone to talk to? Just to be left alone? Although, I personally would share the diagnosis as well, so they understand why he needs accommodations. Also, if there are specific things that he has issues with at aftercare- like standing in line or keeping his hands to himself- discuss them at home. Social stories were help to my kid at that age. His teacher took photos in different situations of “good” behavior and made a little book. We read it every night for a long time, until it began to sink in. [/quote] This is great advice. You don't need to share the diagnosis if your DH is uncomfortable with it but alerting the staff to strategies to help your child be successful is good for everyone - your child, the aftercare and you.[/quote] You do need to share the diagnosis.
