How do you handle teasing?

[Hasil72]

Does your child have a need to have adaptive PE? My son has the issues you described (plus others) and his doctor(s) have written prescriptions for him to have adaptive PE in school. Our school system does not "offer" adaptive pe so this basically means that my child participates in the activities that he feels "safe" doing and watches the other activities or helps the coach. I made it VERY clear to them two years ago when they told me they "couldn't do adaptive pe" that I knew if that was what his physicians say he needs and they don't provide it then I better never get a call that he has been injured in PE. He goes into 9th grade next year and only needs 1 year of pe in 9-12 grade so I won't have to worry about it any more after that. Thank God!

Great idea, but no, he doesn't need adaptive PE nor do we have a program that I'm aware of. DS has hypotonia so he tries his best to do what he can. The school only has one PE teacher and over the years he has learned what DS can and can't handle.

And YES, DS has a wonderful para. She has great insight as her brother was autistic. I get the impression that he was more severely impaired than DS. I pray that 1. DS will continue to be assigned a para and 2. that we are able to keep the same one.
