Maybe the board language pathologist or occupational therapist can be brought in to teach him replacement behaviors that are more socially acceptable and less likely to isolate him. These services are supposed to be available to high school students.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447392662850613354.post-10829558572253956582012-03-24T22:16:57.922-04:002012-03-24T22:16:57.922-04:00This post had me smiling ear to ear!

Have fun Ben! Our experience with high school has been that once kids reach Grade 9 they often celebrate by going out with friends to the movies, a concert or out to a restaurant, rather than have a home birthday party. In high school, home birthday parties seem to fall to the wayside because the kids don't necessarily want to have mom or dad around with their friends. When they get into their senior years in high school, many kids want to go clubbing to celebrate a friend's birthday, often to an all-age clubs and then they post photos on Facebook to show how much fun they had. Drinking is also common these days if they can get away with it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447392662850613354.post-8965594456830701102012-03-22T11:14:31.590-04:002012-03-22T11:14:31.590-04:00I love this post, so beautiful!I love this post, so beautiful!Addie Talley, Photographerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01024206808003120158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-447392662850613354.post-2329218873839870012012-03-22T06:55:06.733-04:002012-03-22T06:55:06.733-04:00This is so beautiful Louise, it's made me cry....This is so beautiful Louise, it's made me cry.
