Something I have not mentioned in this group is a very good book that every parent should read.
Andrew Sutton and Gillian Macguire with the National Institute of Conductive Education in the UK have reminded me of this book. It is well worth reading if you are a parent of a special needs child.
Akos, K. and Akos, M. (1991) Dina; a mother practises Conductive Education. Birmingham: Foundation for Conductive Education is available from Gillian at £11.95 plus postage and packing - for precise costs contact me at gill@nice.ac.uk. This book is also available from Amazon.
I do have a copy of this book that I am willing to lend. All I ask is that when you are done, please return it to me so someone else can borrow it.
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.
