She's 18 now (I can hardly believe that - one <I>one</I> hand anyway).<BR/><BR/>I don't know much about your son, and I certainly don't claim to be an Autism Expert, but I would first of all say, "You are a damn good mom and don't you forget it." Special needs parents have lots of things and people ready to tear 'em down & make them question themselves and take it from a looney one, you've got to know how good you are (this post alone shows how much you care) <I>and</I> replenish yourself.<BR/><BR/>As for your son and the bus, I wouldn't rule out any people on the bus. Not that anyone is doing anything creepy, but you know how anything can be misinterpreted.<BR/><BR/>But my gut tells me, since it seems nothing has really changed, that it's some seemingly inconsequential thing which has him spooked. Could be the bus driver had to serve from hitting some idiot who stopped to fast, or the bus driver was upset over another driver - swore or muttered something. Could be he saw something thru the window of the bus which he now associates with the bus.<BR/><BR/>I know, I know; none of this is very helpful.<BR/><BR/>But the good news is, you care, you're working on it, and you've got support. Use it all babydoll; your big brain, your huge heart, and all of us who care about you and your family -- cuz believe it or not (and there are so many days it's hard not to) you do matter. You do great things. :)<BR/><BR/>Email me and ifin you wanna, we can hook up on the phone -- I won't even charge you by the minute, but you'll as good as if you had :pDeanna Dahlsadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04737202424252252750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2646772639494369714.post-54513571378679871892007-11-02T09:35:00.000-04:002007-11-02T09:35:00.000-04:00Im so sorry ive been gone sweetie.

I do appreciate all the feedback your readers are offering and i think its awesome but im guessing its the actual bus just based on my autism experience. Have you guys tried switching seats? How long is the ride?

And since he knows the bus goes to school, maybe his mind theorized that if he refused the bus he'd stay home. ???<BR/><BR/>It's hard enough to deal with kids who don't have any learning issues, I couldn't imagine what you go through on a daily basis.<BR/><BR/>Lots of hugs and hopefully you'll either find the problem, or at least a solution that is acceptable to everyone without being horribly stressful for you.The Creeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11501280478538293726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2646772639494369714.post-26361595460309091322007-10-31T00:33:00.000-04:002007-10-31T00:33:00.000-04:00I know next to nothing about this topic, but I'm g...I know next to nothing about this topic, but I'm going to lean toward lady in red. Unless maybe it has something to do with an association to the color or smell of the bus. Can't imagine if it's not one of the other kids. *shrug* I'm so sorry!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2646772639494369714.post-18691086101456820992007-10-30T13:35:00.000-04:002007-10-30T13:35:00.000-04:00maybe it has nothing to do with the bus but thats ...maybe it has nothing to do with the bus but thats just his way of getting you to notice something is not right in his world.Lady in redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02835625473505921821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2646772639494369714.post-18348045182388208412007-10-30T12:33:00.000-04:002007-10-30T12:33:00.000-04:00I know so little about most things but autism even...I know so little about most things but autism even less so I can't comment other than to say ...
