I got a really nice note back from Benji's mom.
She thanked me for seeing what's going on with his lessened excitement at pickup time. Talked a bit about his relationship with his brother and the world in general. We're in agreement that he's a bit extra... extra stubborn, extra physical. But that he's a wonderful little person.
She told me about their efforts at home to help him fit in and manage his behavior(s) during school and during his after school program.
We agree on sending emails when his behavior is the same 'bother my brother and refuse to help' stuff. They don't need a big daily report, and if they do, I will email.
Obviously if it's a large issue that hasn't shown up before, I'll still talk to the parents.
I'm happy that we are in agreement, I really have been spending a little time in worry over this. So yay.

Lucky you to have such responsive parents.
ReplyDeleteThey're nice people. In the more than 20 years I've done this work, I have run into a few people who weren't always nice, but the vast majority of the adults I've met have been stellar. Benji has very involved and caring adults in his life, parents, grandparents etc. Lucky kid. :)
DeleteI'm glad he has responsive Parents. He should do quite well having all of these Adults wanting to guide him so well.
ReplyDeleteI think he'll do well, too. He's a very intelligent little person. Once he gets a little more control of his impulsive nature, things should be better.
DeleteThat's good that they sent you back a nice repsonse.
ReplyDeleteMakes me feel a lot better. He's such a cool little guy.
