Hi Penny! I’m a BIG fan of yours.
I was loading the dishwasher while listening to #211, precisely during the moment you shared your struggles. I was about to move a dish my husband had just put in there. I stopped myself because of your story. You save the day! But, do you avoid hovering/rearranging all together, or just don’t do it as often? What about when they’re placed in a way that is guaranteed to collect water?? LOL. This is an almost daily, ridiculous frustration, but it’s bearable knowing I’m not alone. <3
I first started this journey of understanding my neurodivergent son (5) last summer when he began OT with Greg Santucci. Feeling overwhelmed by the new concepts he was introducing, such as co-regulation (wait….. this is about the kid, you’re saying I have to change??) I whined about the absence of a manual for this, and asked for recommendations on books, podcasts, etc. As I recall, your name was the first of many he mentioned. I’ve been fascinated with learning more ever since.
IDK where we would be today if not for all the incredible insight from people like you, Sarah and Mr. Greg. Thanks for all you do!
Hi Rose! I'm so happy to read this! That not going behind them and re-doing the dishwasher thing is a real THING! LOL! It's very hard and I'm still working on it. Right now I'm still doing it 99% of the time, but I'm about to put up a schedule of help for me from the family so I shall be tested a lot more. And I'll bite my tongue every time and appreciate the help.
