Show me bobo

"Show me" is the key phrase. Tommy does not yet include the "where" but includes "show me".

"Bobo" is something very abstract to a child ASD. It hurts, but the word associated with pain is two things. And what having trouble??

When Tommy was hitting, hitting his head and had me crying hot tears I kept saying "Tommy is crying, Tommy has a boo boo." The goal is that it starts to make the association of "sorrow" at his word.

Before Christmas Tommy has had an ear infection. He came to me and putting his finger in the ear. We still continued by saying "Tommy has a sore in his ear."


At 4 ½ years, imagine me, a bit mad with joy the day when Tommy showed me again that he had an earache and was able to answer the question "Show I hurt! ". 4 ½ years! FINALLY! The step that I find most painful of the young baby who cries and can not tell us where it hurts would soon be behind me with Tommy.

is quite a success and a big step forward for us and for Tommy.

However, as with almost any child with ASD, it's not as simple as that, and it does not stop there.

Tommy told me now "sore ear!".

By cons, is that he will tell us the intensity of pain? No. It will not one day tell us that it is more or less badly. As he can not tell us that pain is gone. It could even

stuck to respond "bobo ear" as soon as we asked "Show me bobo!" Because for him the association will be made, I say listen to the question.

was an important step, but the following is equally important and is probably more complex to teach. I can not measure the pain or his "no pain".

The other problem, what is a bobo? For us it's a pain, it hurts! For Tommy, a bobo is rather a change of perception in his body. It could be his leg itchy, water in her eyes, have the nose or ears plugged, numbness. We are far from "bobo" as we know it.

It is also found with a child who could start abusing the use of the word "bobo", starting to say to all those famous bohemian changes perception. So it would be like being at square one of not knowing when it really hurts.

also means a child who this morning went to her room humming, "bobo ears, sore on his head on the foot sore, sore ears, sore on his head, sore on the foot ...!"

This is not easy is that Tommy would we snatched, literally pain. Yesterday he hit his foot and took my hand so I took away his bobo. This is obviously impossible, but equally difficult to understand for Tommy, who insists gripe, taking my hand and repeating "sore foot".


It's a great success for us that Tommy can express discomfort, but also a good example of the complexity of learning!

Eye Exercises For Ptoss

It may sound easy but ...

this week I was chatting with someone. I came to want to write this text, but without knowing where to start.

Many parents will recognize themselves here, we often say that it does not look so bad. I often say, when the child leaves the cliche of autistic fifties, it's not that bad!

I'm often told that it looks good to go with Tommy. It is a happy child, smiling, laughing. He starts trying to talk more. He does not complain of practically nothing. It follows him everywhere without saying anything, he does not many crises.

I can say somehow we are lucky and blessed with son. It could be worse right?

is the observation that some people do. Yet between appearances and reality, the requirement of everyday life, there's a big margin.

All parents of children (NT, PDD or other) will agree that raising a child, even the wisest and most obedient of all is anything but easy.

is demanding, physically and psychologically. We learn our parenting daily at the same time our children go through stages one after the other, leaving us scarcely time to breathe and celebrate the final victory.

Parents of children in "terrible two" will tell you. We spend the intense phase of the "terrible two years," All Aboard in toilet training is just one or should think about changing the child's bed, you breathe a little help and the child falls into a small crisis of affirmation of three years at the same time that the phase of protracted why. Subsequently the pre adolescent crisis of four years taking in, we think it settles and oupsss school entry and challenges come in leaps and bounds with a child who brings the "mania" and bad habits of friends by Thinking the king of the house!

I'll stop there, every parent knows that it goes up .... until when?

Well, if you do understand that raising a child is already a big challenge for all parents (and what is not said as a complaint but an observation), you understand the fact why even be told, we parents of different children, it's not that bad in the end it may be angry, hurt.

The discussion this week led me to explain that yes in fact appear, and the reality is true that Tommy is not so bad if we want to begin to compare, but it does not remove the challenge of bringing up a child + the challenge of educating a disabled child.

Tommy is a child smiling, happy, laughing, but it is also a child like any other which has sometimes just "no desire". Not want to stop the activity, do not want to listen to a broadcast on television X, do not want to take his medication for his ear infection, do not want to eat ... not want to drink the glass of water was offered. That's the challenge of the parent of every day. By cons, we add the challenge understanding. We can forget the "son, you can resume your work later," the "is your sister's turn to choose the TV show", "must take medication to cure it is important." We saw the challenges of education of the child "normal" with an extra which can sometimes give headaches! We see a child crying bitterly because he needs to complete an activity knowing that it probably does not even why. It has trouble with him, while having to do our job as parents.

Tommy is not so bad. He made tremendous progress so for people who do not live daily life, it's nice to see. "You should be happy, it's better, it's getting better." Of course we're happy, encouraged, but the progress is more, the greater the requirement in our role as parents / parents of an autistic child increases. Progress comes with biggest challenges. A psychological need stronger. For example, communication. A child who asks for nothing, it's pretty simple. He played in his corner, did not ask to drink, eat, play. A child who learns to ask for things, you know, this is not always restful. "I want Mamannnnnnnnn ....." (I need not say more, you know !!!). Progress communication leads to this challenge as a parent. The child asks, and must also learn to be told no, wait ... And we are added to the challenge "I ask but I do not understand that I must wait, we can not tell me." I lost count the number of times in a day when I am pulled by the arm, or that I'm asking, "Mommy I want xhsysy .... Now I have to play the guessing game, I manage VERY frequent requests plus a child who does not understand that I am before a round hot to cook dinner. I see a sad little man in front of a refusal, because he just does not the concept. He must learn that I can not say no. Of course it includes the "NO", but it does not really understand why he is denied something he has tried so hard to ask. Tonight he was crying. He asked me a chocolate biscuit, then two, then three ... and he wept bitterly, but it is not yet at the stage of understanding why he can not have another cookie.

Behind progress there is still the autistic child. The little guy who can sing and turn on itself several minutes. The little boy who could easily lose out. The little boy in a winter day in the house alternates between align, rotate, apply, align, ask, ask, ask, but ask what? He did not even know himself, stunning even by the fact his parents.


People are often proud to see all the progress and tell us. "Wow, it's fun, things are going well, he is progressing well. "But I question whether they realize how each advance brings new challenges larger and sometimes more exhausting. We might even appear at the limit for parents dissatisfied, not grateful and yet this is not the case. We are proud of our child, we are pleased to see progress, but the adjustment that comes with enormous energy demand.

La fashion week à NYC, superbe.

Fashion never takes a rest, the haute couture fashion shows are just completed a fashion week again. The creators are ready for fashion week fall winter 2011 2012 Ready-to-wear, and New York took the reins as every year. I make my selection from the shows I had seen in pictures, not because I did not go to NYC ... but I liked it anyway. In short, without further ado: The selection of parades in New York by Noumia's papers. Finally from me, what:

1) Thakoon :
One of my designers Favorites. It lends a fresh incredible fashion, and it was much needed! He loves to mix colors and shapes on the same place, going to the mercy of his desires. The cuts are modern and harmonious. Materials "noble" as tweed, find their account with softer materials, which would almost cheap if not colorful and well accessorized. The tweed jackets, precisely, are very spotty and bicolor fluorescent, as if the locker room was broke into the winter. Even the nails are neon. The autumn-winter season will be released and gay Thakoon for Monsieur.

2) Alexander Wang :
Another young talented designer, Alexander Wang which has become in recent months the catwalk star in New York. Eagerly awaited as every season, his show does not disappoint. He managed to construct an image of rock star prodigy of fashion, it meets well. What struck me in this collection is the transformation materials in one place: they "moult" on dresses, to create a second skin, which may seem strange at first glance but turn out beautiful if you look closely, and especially patience. The passes are very important, mostly fur. Transparency key, which defines the bi-material between silk and wool, fur and lamé. I felt that as a spirit a little sport-chic Alexander Wang is a game more cautious than before, but always as much fun, and it shows.

3) Rodarte :
Probably the parade as I expected. The sisters Kate and Laura Mulleavy are endlessly surprising and attentive to detail, and it is necessary to watch the parade several times to capture somehow that spirit, that they alone can decipher. I tried to understand, and even with my little novicité that may seem childish, I understood. For this parade, the superposition is repeated without seeming: Clothes overlap, as well as printed materials. It is key not to be missed. Also the length: long skirts, coats, too. Show an almost 70's in form, if the colors had not been so sweet. The wheat will plunge almost printed in the heart of the fields in summer. But remember that it's winter. The boots are essential. Boots revisited in print almost ethnic, black and white opposition of the show so sweet and peaceful contrast noticed and appreciated.

4) Jeremy Scott :
Jeremy Scott, who is for me the creative provocation from the New York fashion week, has plenty of surprises. For this collection, I would say that teen-girl-kawaii manga are queens. Many colors side outfits, as usual, but also in hair, eyes and cheeks. Of neon and over again, especially on the fur and bag teddy bear. This is not a bad idea, because "security blankets" for fashionistas are their (s) Bag (s) first, so why not do the real fluff! The blade is much emphasized well. And Mr. Scott even dared to print dresses. Printed LOOOOOOL pills .... I love it.

5) Oscar de la Renta :
European Inspirations for Mr. From Renta, who this time get his inspiration in Russia and Siberia, from my point of view. The fur on the sleeves or button collar, fur hat, everything is there! But associated with the straw, which gives NYC real side. I think that will also print jacquard for next winter, cross-legged tweed this time, which gives a softer side to printed Alps. The quilt is obvious here, but Oscar de la Renta and the sublime turns perfectly.

I would not call Marc Jacobs, Proenza Schouler or . Not that I did not like their collections on the contrary! But I wrote spontaneously on the catwalks above 5, then I block for them, I can not describe well, it's still a little fuzzy for me. So, for the appointment of London fashion week, a little shorter (6 days) but also interesting!

Can we put something clear

is a topic that I regularly back, and I hope that helps to do a little better pass the message on the famous LABEL.

seems that many have difficulty understanding the need for this label and sees it as "bad".

Worse, it's more than once, enough for me brings the subject, I read, it would seem we do not see the label in our children.

I read it in one place, of course, not clearly written but it is said between the lines. We should see HUMAN instead of TED.

When trying to explain the difficulties of our child and that is answer "in my time, there was no need to label them, it was just kids."

And yesterday I saw this movie , which I understand very well the message BUT.


I want to answer loud and clear: "Will you take us for idiots?" Because honestly, be criticized by people label our children this way is really think we are real monsters.

Yet if one takes the time to sit and think about it, as I already explained there, these people who criticize us those famous labels, also spend their time to ask one. (Lazy, difficult, temperamental, child king ...)

I try to understand again why it is keen to see a negative simple terms that helps us better understand certain situations. As the debate over the use of the word DISABILITY. Why see it negatively, as if to use these "tags" were an injury to the person?

Believe me when I say, I know some parents who took pleasure in seek and apply a label to their child. NO.

I try to understand why use a label, is seen as if we no longer treated our children like humans? Well, you really believe that we see our kids with a label in the front? That's how we see them, walking a big label with a big red X on their personality? Let them be condemned? They are no longer children but only one disorder?

Because if that's really taking the parents of sick children, the disabled, for idiots.


*** The use of "you" is not meant to indict specific people or to generalize the situation. The you is for those who do not seem to understand, because even if "you" (viewing time) are a superb understanding, this is not true of everyone.

No text is not written after a comment directed at me personally so do not worry! ***

Mermaid Dress With Bustle

The last english rose.

few weeks ago, I did not know, or at least somewhat, PJ Harvey. "This Is Love" at the limit, and again. Then I read an article about her in Vogue, without really paying attention. And I heard one of his songs on the radio, and I was a bit challenged. Soon, everyone began talking about her as if she was the 8th wonder of the world. At that time, I started doing my research on Polly Jean Harvey. After listening to his albums, I wondered how I rock fan, I could miss such a marvel.

The album that I liked most is Uh Her Hue it provides everything, really everything. It's rather minimalist rock, bleak times like the song Shame, or even pretty country-folk on No Child of Mine. It is a chameleon universe that I love and that's what might be termed PJ Harvey: A chameleon, assertive and independent. Of course, I would not draw the wrath of "experts" who say that this is not all that and I'd better keep my mouth shut instead of talking nonsense, but that's how I 'I felt.

If I mention this today is that I listened to her new album "Let england shake.
And I was almost surprised. Despite my "no knowledge", I really felt that this album was different precedents. Less dark, less messages, more melancholic and soothing.
What's funny is that me as the biggest fans have noticed the same thing: PJ Harvey is now serene. Looks like she has "abandoned" the rock & roll, the pure, hard, and she turned to indie-pop, much more calm and appropriate. And worse, or better, I do not know is that it suits him well, and no spoilsport will not intervene in the march towards peace by PJ Harvey and quiet strength.

Family of the year, the show

I've already talked about the group California Family of the Year. Well I had the chance to see their first concert in France last Friday to leather goods.

When I arrive, there are a lot of people when the concert starts at more than 1 hour! This means they are expected by the Parisian public. Too bad I could not see the first part, provided by Budam, singer and pianist as talented as dramatic. I manage to place first overall (in elbowing), and the concert begins stack at the time. The group begins with a song I like most: Stairs, beginning as a folk romantic stroll and graduate to the tune of drums, in concert at least.

The public is slow to thaw despite calls and Sebastian Keefe Joseph Keefe, the singer and lead guitarist drummer, who are brothers, respectively. Some men declare their love out loud between songs for the keyboardist and the only woman in the group, Christina Schroeter. The songs keep coming, Joseph juggles his folk guitar and electric guitar, sometimes surprisingly putting himself to the frenzied solos Jimmy Page. Sebastian himself, rages on drums and gives everything he has and I can say that the result is electric.
And at that moment, the first notes of gold Like Psyche Scope resonate. The public, until there was enough slack, falls into a kind of collective trance. Including me, I confess (Hysteria is my thing). Same reaction for Castoff and The Barn. These are the three songs the most independent-pop and "electro" album.

The two brothers then leave from the other 2 members of the group, and start an acoustic song, sweet and beautiful. The last song is near, and I try to make the most of this concert full of energy. And enough to give me.

The power of drawing

I'll make a confession. Long ago they explain to me and I KNOW we should use the visual for the child TED (and probably several other children for several raisons aussi!). Que ça lui permet de mieux comprendre et intégrer les apprentissages, routines...

Malgré moi on dirait que je n'y arrive pas totalement.

Ok oui Tommy a des pictogrammes, on avait installé un horaire au début avant les services du CRDI, à la garderie il a sa structure visuelle, habillage, brosser les dents, laver les mains etc...

L'éducatrice, et amis, me recommandent souvent d'utiliser, si je suis mal prise, un papier et un crayon et dessiner les explications.

Fait à noter. Je suis POURRIE, litérallement, en dessin. Je ne suis pas très visuelle de nature donc même si on me demande de dessiner quelque chose de simple like a cat, believe it or not, I have trouble!

So, I was often advised to do so if necessary, and often I get discouraged just because I tell myself that if I fail to draw something clear (I'm not talking about perfection here, but how to draw X and an idea that it is easy to understand), how can my boy does he understand?

On the other hand, what it serves me to draw for girls who are quite verbal and seem very well understand the explanations by the word?

I am writing all this, because yes I know the usefulness of the visual, but on the other side I come difficult to tame me and do it.



Last Friday, the little pot was a big penalty. We are 10 minutes of her bedtime and she pulls out an apple from the fridge. She's trying somehow to bite the apple, but she can not (you know when the skin is too thick there and the teeth are just dragging!). She goes to see his dad to remove the peel, and the latter replied that no, it's too late, she has her apple tomorrow.

Parents of any child, you probably understand the reaction that the chip has been mining. Tears ... the tears that drip on his play.

I therefore propose, in good heart for Friday evening, and thinking about my appetite casserole bird, give him a piece and the rest of the apple the next day.

I therefore ask the mining coming to see me, we'll talk!

So I start

"it is late you can get a little bit ......."

not continue my sentence. The word piece, the screams of mining more attractive.

I'm sure the scene you recall the memories!

To me, for cons, it is important to play down the whole with a casserole that has a tendency to see the life as a drama! How to explain it to understand? Because outside the whim of wanting her apple full, I'm not sure that the chip really understands what I try to explain, it will be a piece of apple today and tomorrow to complete.

And I think, to hell with my drawing skills, I am fortunate that the mining casserole understand explanations so even if I draw all wrong I can at least explain what the drawing represents. Jump on the

magnadoodle.

"Look"
"Here is the entire apple" (a drawing of an apple)
"Here is the night" (a moon)
"Here's the day" ( sun)
"When it's night, you can have a piece only "
" When is the day you can have your entire apple without the peel.

"Then look out, that night, so what you may have ?

Response casserole: "A Song".
I gave him the painting and offered him to go and show her dad she wanted to explain his piece of apple, because c ' is the only day she can have his entire apple.

I found a small pot smiling, who understood what I was trying to explain.


Yesterday Tommy began to get sick and he vomit.
As I have already explained little pot has a little difficulty with the concept of disease and that is normal at his age.

By cons, this morning, the mining chip rises, having heard his brother scream, cry of pain and fever.

She gets up saying she has a stomach ache here and there. What seems more a representation of the evil of his brother and not his disease to her.

I return to my business when I hear that seems to throw up (as I already explained here ). I'll see what happens and dad told me that she "wants" and throw it to the toilet to force. I'm sure

and that some mining chip is not sick, I'm rather face the problem of understanding. His brother is sick but not her.

She moved with buckets and continues to want to induce vomiting. It takes the

magnadoodle.

"That's Tommy" (guy with a crooked mouth that looks sick). Tommy is sick.
"This is me (smiley face). I'm not sick.
"That's daddy" (smiley face). Daddy is not sick.
"It is you (smiley face). You're not sick you either.

"Who is sick?" It was Tommy.

"Do you need to vomit and need buckets?" No

"You can go give it to dad and tell him you're okay."


Yet the mining casserole understands the word, she talks like you and me. But the visuals added to the explanation has a different effect. We pass a child in crisis that does not perhaps as much as we think? (It was enormously difficult to know, even the actors can not really identify the real degree of understanding of the pot versus reactions more whims / oppositions etc. ..) To a child who dies down and listen to explanations and calmly responds great.

Cell Resipiration Lab Answers

IF you knew how long it is I want to write this text, but like all the texts here for two years, I walk on the stroke of inspiration and the "sudden flash."

I got it. FINALLY!

The basic idea of the text was simple enough, but coudonc when I can not find I sometimes let down.

long ago that I thought of this text, which comes from the idea that as parents we regularly "accused".

The child had a seizure at the store. It our fault.
The child does not sleep through the night. Obviously, we simply lack of discipline.

I guess I do not need to give you more examples, you will find much yours as your own experience.

When I got the inspiration for this text and if I thought it was responding to these accusations?

Oh yes you are right, I bear the blame so many mistakes:

It is our fault if our child is always smiling.
It is our fault if our child is attentive to others ...

Again then I'll let you think about all the positives, the good things of your children and all their quality.

And if we blamed it for a bit instead.

Misery ... it's my fault, my child is a true clown who laughs all the time.

I can only imagine the faces of the accusers before this kind of affirmation. Coudonc if it bears the blame for all the defects of our children, we can take good qualities too!

Well, it seems simple enough as an explanation why then did I take several months before she managed to write it?

Something was missing and I had this flash now!

I had a discussion about our grandchildren TED "mild" cases subtle, sometimes those who at the time, received no diagnosis and still walked right in life. Those who receive late diagnosis. It describes some

disabilities "invisible disabilities". We do not see them physically and the child seems perfectly normal.

And I got it! IS OUR FAULT !!!!!!!

Yes yes, you read that right is this accursed invisible disability regularly. When you would like to confide, explain what we live with our children but it is cut off with "it seems not," "there's nothing there," "it not seem that bad," "he looks quite normal."

Heile the gang! Parents of children suffering from an invisible disability. IT'S YOUR FAULT!

Yes! Yes, it is our fault if the disability is invisible. It is our fault because that's all the work we do with our children that makes disability less visible than it was.

These are all the battles, all the daily challenges we went through (and upcoming). These therapies, stimulation, love, understanding ... This is the time to teach which does not usually taught .

Whenever you hear the "it does not appear, he seems perfectly normal," think about it, I'll throw the blame without hesitation today by saying IT'S YOUR FAULT . Take it and smile the next time you pass a comment offensive or derogatory about the invisibility of disability your child.


(you will understand that "your fault" should be translated as "with you")

Kid Getting Raped Buy A Guy

Colored.

When fashion week, I met a woman. With green hair. Not a hint of green apple discreet, no, dark green and pronounced. At this point, I realized that all women around me had their hair strange colors, crazy. And they were beautiful simply. Colored hair, it's a little puzzle, because if you get a pink farting roots developed on a whim, we risk too much hassle to really find our "true" color. That is why his women fascinated me, I think: They have had the guts and courage to face the strange colors, in not caring at all the look, the views of people. Yes, because I do not think anyone does not stumble when they roam the streets, they take the subway ... But they certainly did nothing to make. Where they like to attract attention, it may be the goal, right? So maybe you find it absurd and irrelevant, but I think these women deserve a big big up. Or a post of your choice;)

I Have Rash From Hypo Thryriod Help

It is our fault we are the specialists of our children comes

I write today because it is a fact that I can finally officially done.

I write also for all those parents who may be in this phase where suddenly it seems we must go back to school to learn how to raise our child ASD.

I vividly remember this feeling, this step very difficult to cross when we start the diagnostic procedures for a pervasive developmental disorder.

is to accept something you do not see the world the same way as our child. Thought to have the education necessary to raise our children and help them develop "normally".

When approached I felt helpless. I did not what he "needed" in order to help my child. It took trained specialists to university to explain how.

At this point it's easy to question.

I let s'autostimuler. Is that correct? Some say yes, others say it will prevent him from developing it and locked him in his world.

should I contact a speech therapist, an occupational therapist, a psychologist. I'm clearly a bad mother who does not want his child changes so I do not do these things. What are the experts.

I'm talking about putting up icons. Heuuuuu picto what? Is called desensitization, sensory modulation disorder. Quick google!

guilt mounts, obviously, it seems that everyone I speak Chinese, I'm clearly not what is needed to adequately take care of my child!

specialists arrive, the meetings, we were bombarded with various boards and suddenly our parental instinct takes the edge? THEM they know what they're talking about!

The psychologist told me that I should not .... The speech therapist told me I should do .... The OT told me that he perceives it .... And

me there? And he there?

TED A child is nonverbal play the guessing game. He can not tell us his feelings, the reason for his difficult behavior or seizures. He can not even tell us why he laughed. A child

TED record is successfully untangle all behavioral untangle what the child understands and what he really does not understand. It must analyze each crisis and do not get caught between "fancy" and misunderstanding. It must support specialists "who know everything" and entourage "who knows everything."

With TED comes a ton of experts and advice and at first it really come to believe that we, it was not the case.

This phase lasts a time which varies from one parent to another. This may be several days / weeks, others it will be several months.


I can officially tell you today. After more than a year of service. After more than 2 years of meeting with various specialists (read: a bit too much for my taste!). After several assumptions and "do as they like or do-it".

I can tell you that we, as parents we were, we are and we will ALWAYS our specialists children.

specialists can come up with a ton of advice, assumptions, different solutions tailored to supposedly "our" children, but they have never experienced this, they will never know our child.

specialists apply theories learned in books. They generalize. The eighth child TED walk because ... The TED child had a fit in this circumstance because ...

him and our child? Because our child was not conceived in a book. Of course there are similarities in behavior. As children NT, some phases of development are similar, arriving about to this age for some reason, but like all children, some of them out of books and will not "by the book."

Sometimes I feel that this is an oversight in the world TED, as if we forgot that our children can yes, and be consistent with the books by the Book, and sometimes not. The child TED is also unique and this is where we, as parents, it comes into play and we finally realized that despite our lack of study material, we will remain the specialist of our child.

specialists may well happen with their advice, their theories out of books, but I know now that it's me who has the last word, and that Finally, I am not so void and powerless as that!

Because books, benches University, do not replace us.
