Hi Daisy,
She's always mentioned similar traits between her son and I, but what really got her going was when I said I failed gymnastics in school because I couldn't walk the balance beam. That was one of the tests he son did (and failed) when he was being evaluated for whatever his official DX is.
When I was a kid I was always called shy- not sensitive or different. I never raised my hand to answer a question in school. Prayed I could hold out on going to the bathroom until we got a break because I could never ask permission to go.
Classes were very crowded- more than 30 kids per class and I always thought that was good for me because I could hide easier. Maybe it wasn't, I can't really say for sure.
How do you work with children who have SI problems? I am discovering that my T is right about many things- I made a list and went over them with her. Maybe things for kids can be adapted to adults?
I usually see the negative side of things, but my T honestly does not seem to be doing a negative comparison between her son and I. I'm usually so uncomfortable talking about things, but I think knowing that she has someone close to her with issues like mine has probably helped me more than hurt me.
