When you have a special needs child, it is like floating in the ocean. You will have highs when you ride the top of the wave and move forward and lows when the wave crashes over you and sucks you back. As you are riding a low wave of sadness, frustration & disappointment, just keep in mind the next wave will take you back up and move you forward once more.

Hi, this looks like great info!! My son has these gross motor problems that persist, even with his fine motor and speech getting better! I am always looking for ways to help him. His Calendar age is 27 months, and his gross motor is about 18 months, so, we are doing PT, OT, and speech, and more PT, and more PT, LOL You know the drill!!!
BTW, there is another new group just started a few days ago, Children with Epilepsy and seizures, please stop by when you can! I will post a note about this group there! Diane dianelanglamorticella@yahoo.com

Welcome to this very small group :-)
We have been involved with Conductive Education over the last 9 years. We have an 11 year old daughter with CP and we have had some amazing results with Conductive Education summer camps and hiring private conductors. Lorna |

Hi, Like Andrew, I'm not exactly a "Mom" either, but I thought I'd stop by and look in.
In your CE links list, you might like to add "The Conductive Web" at <http://www.pageflakes.com/PacesCEO > which is compiling a 'one-stop-shop' of all CE-related weblogs. The URL for my own blog is <http://paces.typepad.com/paces> and not as currently listed. Best wishes, Norman |

Hi Norman,
As parents we unite and share experiences and the male perspective is always welcome. Thanks for the additonal links. I've added them to the list. For those of you that don't know, Andrew Sutton and Norman Perrin are 2 highly respected advocates of Conductive Education. They both have an incredible wealth of experience and knowledge. When you have a special needs child, it is like floating in the ocean. You will have highs when you ride the top of the wave and move forward and lows when the wave crashes over you and sucks you back. As you are riding a low wave of sadness, frustration & disappointment, just keep in mind the next wave will take you back up and move you forward once more.

by marklorna on Oct. 27, 2008 at 4:43 PMHi Susie, Thanks for the link! I also saw your generous post in the Conductive Community Forum as a response to my query. I have mentioned your post to several parents, so hopefully they aren't to overwhelmed and will contact you. When you have a special needs child, it is like floating in the ocean.
