It was time to update us at The Children's Center. We have been there for six months. So we touched on some positives. I can sometimes deescalate the little man much quicker now. I am still working on tone and keeping my mouth shut. Harder than it sounds.
We hit on how he tries to bait me. Just like an alcoholic. If I can make you mad and act out then I can continue to have a reason to misbehave. Oy. The therapist had spent half a day at the school last week and she noticed that same kind of behavior when he played with his male peers. He plays much better with the girls.
There are days I feel we are making progress and then there are days I feel we are drowning. But we keep on keeping on, one day at a time. We have not come anywhere near the bar in the time we have been in therapy. And that is always a good thing.
And now I am searching for a new activity to fill in for basketball. I did email community ed back, but I don't expect anything to come from it.
