Learning with special needs, especially with autism is the most challenging to anybody who works with this population. Parents or teachers have a hard time teaching them. I admit Adam's difficulties in learning something is too severe, his brain isn't responding or receptive enough due to his autism.
Despite that reason, I don't mind in learning if he doesn't pick up anything that teachers teach him. But something is really bothering and It's concerning me. Seeing his lunch box often untouched or hearing the teacher complaining that Adam cries on and off the whole day and seems he's having stomachache. Stomach is the most important thing to me.
How are you going to stay all day from 9 am to 4 pm if your stomach is empty? The only food he has is from breakfast at 8am from home and he loves his food.
Adam will eat the whole food if someone assists him, encourages and tells him to scoop his food. It is not his fault if his autism causing him so rigid that he won't touch his food and feed himself. I try my best to help him but it is what it is.
I don't know if I make the right decision but I think is the best way is to keep my son home for the rest of the year before he starts his new private school at Gersh Academy this coming year. That's mean, home school him temporary ....
Off course study and learning are priorities and the main goal, but making him happy also is my job besides those two things.
I think it’s best to be his teacher as well at home so you can help him learn things he’s not learning at school and sometimes that’s all kids want, annattachment from their parents
I think that too and a bit spoiled since he is the only kid at home ...
Nothing wrong with that :)
Wah..senangnya..he..he, tapi adam lucu juga ya.ha..ha..apa dia gak takut sama angsa..? Harapan saya adam selalu sehat walafiat..thanks.
Teh, saya berharap teteh lebih sabar dalam menghadapi Adam. Saya tahu itu emang sulit karena kehidupan anak2 dengan autis mempunyai kehidupannya sendiri dan tidak menghiraukan yang lain. Tapi anak-anak autis ini lebih cerdas dari yang lain.. Peran orang tualah yang paling penting dalam menangani kehidupannya.. Teh, saya yakin semua intervensi yang teteh lakukan itu terbaik untuk Adam.. Semangat teh @lugina! ;)
Amiin, mudah2an adam selalu dengan apa yang saya harap...
Amiin... Amiin... Doa kami juga buat teh @lugina dan keluarga..
Caring for a child with autism can demand a lot of energy and time. I know There may be days when you feel overwhelmed, stressed, or discouraged but ... God knows you can manage it well @lugina.
Best regards to Adam. He's special in his way.

Teteh @lugina , saya sangat setuju dengan pernyataan anda berikut ini:
Semua anak memang seperti itu di waktu kecilnya. Hanya saja Kita perlu untuk membimbing dan mengawasinya untuk belajar.
Bahkan menurut saya anak kecil memang perlu nakal sedikit karena kalau anak kecil itu terlalu polos mungkin tindakan dan sikapnya akan kurang respon dan seperti itulah yang seharusnya. Anak kecil harus responsif.
Oh ya teteh @lugina . Saya berdoa anda dan adam supaya sehat selalu , agar lancar dalam setiap kegiatan anda dan pekerjaan Anda dan agar selalu sukses Kiranya. Amin ya rabbal alamin.
Salam hangat dari saya @rijalaronaceh.
Amiin, terima kasih ..
Sama sama teteh @lugina. Mohon kiranya teteh kunjungi lah sekali blog saya @rijalaronaceh.
Kalau bukan orang Indonesia yang saling kunjung siapa lagi..hehe.. Thank You very much teteh @lugina..
Right it is natural kids behaviour and it should with kids. This type of kids called all rounder.

Friend, I hope comrades more patience in the face of Adam. I know that weve difficult for children with autism have a life of their own and ignore the others, but autistic children are more intelligent than others. The role of the parents is most important in dealing with life, patient friend, all there is a silver lining, passion and success always for you @lugina
Nice that is to know learning is the ultimate thing in life :)
Iya bunda @lugina, saya sendiri tidak tahan jika perut saya sakit, apalagi adam anak bunda @lugina, dan itu sudah kebiasaan anak kecil mencari seseorang untuk teman makan nya. Semoga bunda menjadi seorang ibu yang terbaik untuk adam . tapih saya yakin, bunda @lugina selalu berusaha menjadi yang terbaik buat anak nya ? Seperti ibu saya yang selalu menjadi yang terbaik buat saya :) ..
children will always be naughty imagine adults being naughty hahah that would be unfair lol
the new beginning phase in the life lets make that the best :)
As the mother of an autistic boy who has eaten only a peanut butter and honey sandwhich a day for the last year and a half, I completely understand where you are coming from.
Though mine will eat his familiar foods at school, I can almost always guarantee he will not eat at all when we are away from home.
Do you have a feeding therapist in your area? Some will go to school with him to try to tackle whatever issue is causing him to not eat.
I know 1 of my friend's boy also only eat certain food n will not eat any other food that he never try, but luckily Adam not that picky. He's on straight diet due to his foods allergy, so i pack him enough through out the day.
The problem is, he doesn't want to feed himself and I offered his school's teacher to get his feeding therapy but they refused. They said Adam doesn't need one, they even promise us for para teacher .. Until now they don't even hire one yet and school is almost over.
Hopefully a new private school will work as we hope. Hugs to your son!
