Joshua sounds like a great kid, not unlike Tom, so it may well be that our experience is relevant. We plan to meet up with the RDI consultant in October; hopefully we'll "click" and move forward from there!<BR/><BR/>LisaLisa Jo Rudyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07517170138121456391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453834370185926171.post-67854302591397089432008-09-08T09:00:00.000-04:002008-09-08T09:00:00.000-04:00I really enjoy your blog.

I work four 12 hour night shifts a week in the lab at a local hospital so I really feel I need the "set up curriculum". It is computerized so his illegible handwriting is not a problem and I have been surprised at how quickly he has picked up typing. He is so much less anxious and confident. He is learning so much better. I read about RDI because of your posting here and hope you will include your experiences here. Joshua exhibits spontaneous affection with my husband and I. He also has a great sense of humor, coming up with quips on his own and can read cues (he commented to me about a cartoon character who was displaying sarcasm "I don't think she really means that"). Outside of the home, he really struggles. This might be something that can help him. Thanks for your sharing.
