    Potty help... Autistic son

    Agree to disagree. What seems like "judging" to you is advocacy to me. This is the last time I'll post on the subject because I didn't want to hijack her post which is one I can definitely sympathize with.

    Potty help... Autistic son

    DME - durable medical equipment. Everybody has their thing, this is mine. I won't use the handicapped stall in a bathroom if I'm alone either. I'll wait until the next regular stall becomes available. :confused3 Obviously, for the OP, the use of the companion bathroom can make the difference...

    Potty help... Autistic son

    I agree - that's why I put "or others who need room due to DME".

    Potty help... Autistic son

    I knew I'd get flamed for it, but I'm sorry - "companion" means "companion" - someone who requires assistance when using the restroom and therefore two of them cannot fit into a regular stall, or, someone needs room due to DME. :confused3 My DH has fistulating Crohn's disease, and can be...

    Potty help... Autistic son

    Love the companion restrooms as my DS has the same noise sensitivities, but my DH hates that I shame anyone coming out of them ALONE by asking "Where's your companion?!?!":scratchin

    Resort Choices Limited? When Booking Online-Help!

    Jersey week does begin 11/8 and also there is a half marathon that weekend. I don't think the crowds will be holiday-level or anything, but if it were me, I would try to go into the next week - we've always had good luck the week before Thanksgiving. As far as the room booking, they only allow...

    Whats wrong with Movies resort?

    We stayed at ASMo on our first visit, and it was great! I actually miss staying at the value resorts, because the theming is so wonderful. The only reason we stay at moderates now is because my bed-hog teenagers really need the queen bed - they've outgrown sharing a full. We stayed in the Herbie...

    The Everything Pooh Sized Thread

    My DS is a solid 4X (meaning, it's evenly distributed on him), and he rode Kali with no problems after they installed the new seatbelts. Also, they talked about this in the disabilities forum, and a gentleman who actually works at Kali said that they very rarely have had to turn riders away...

    The Everything Pooh Sized Thread

    I will have to try the no riders! Worst pet peeve ever!:mad: My DH laughs at me because I do this *dance* while walking...every few steps I have to shake a leg and get the shorts to drop back down my thigh! Its completely unfair that overweight men do not seem to have this problem with riding...

    son with PTSD

    It's good to look back now and laugh, isn't it?!?! My two kids - both ASD - gave me lots of OSM's over the years, too! The one we laugh about the most now is when DS was about 8 or 9. We were visiting my parents and my DS slept about three hours that night. He had been to the bathroom and...

    RV mattress suggestions?

    Lol...that brought me back to our first outing with our pop up, and my DH couldn't figure out WHY it wouldn't crank down...he had forgot to take the egg crates off! So, he had to crank it back up, take them off, pack them up, and then fold down the camper again. :sad2: Hmmm...bed in a box...I...

    MMMMM....spiedie FEST?!?! Now THAT'S my kind of celebration!! I lived in the Southern Tier (around Norwich) and traveled for an optical chain; I went wherever they needed a licensed optician for the day, usually between Norwich, Oneonta, Utica, Binghamton (Front St.), and Vestal. Whenever I...

    son with PTSD

    Bless his little heart!:lovestruc I have requested a seat near the exits on several occasions and have never had a problem. Best of luck! Sounds like the desensitization is helping.

    RV mattress suggestions?

    Exactly, one of our concerns - when you buy a mattress, you get to go to the store, give it a test drive! When you're paying the prices that you do see on camping world, you want to make sure you're getting a good product - It's too risky for me. Buying a mattress custom from a mattress...
