He is able to express himself via a letterboard or word processor much more in depth than he could verbally. I wanted to ask you if you have tried to have conversations with your son where you ask a question and he types out his answer? I think you mentioned he was a good writer. My son pecks at the letters with one finger so he doesn't have to be able to type with all 10 fingers to communicate. This method has given us such tremendous opportunites with academics and self expression that he is currently on diploma track in a high school in a special day class.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5361535934739316898.post-268633600185538022010-12-03T06:42:53.154-08:002010-12-03T06:42:53.154-08:00I agree-- you never once sounded frustrated.
