[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I feel for you 100%.  I was in the exact same boat, exactly in October of last year.  We pulled DS who was a pusher and kicker from his private preschool and went through Child Find.  He's been attending FCPS preschool since December 2013 and no one recognizes this kid anymore.  He's so poised, so "together".  We ran into one of his old preschool teachers this summer and she couldn't believe what she was seeing.  She almost asked us to come back:)

I saw that you are in MD.  See if you can get an MCPS evaluation now.  Also, try to get a private OT evaluation.  Our DS pushing and kicking turned out to be sensory needs and we are now doing both private and school OT several times a week.  He hasn't pushed anyone in 6 months and trust me when I tell you - he was a real terror exactly one year ago.  [/quote]

The paperwork is sitting on my desk.  We were transitioned out of Infants and Toddlers.  The idea of starting the evaluations all over is just so daunting.

What does an Occupational Therapist do?  I see many parents of SN use them but I can't figure out what they do.  I always view OT as therapists that help adults perform their jobs better--usually motor skills.  How do they assist with behavior issues?

So happy to hear of your success with your son.  It's wonderful to hear that things can be turned around.[/quote]
