The inspiration behind this blog has always been for the children I work with day to day. They motivate me, push me, and inspire me to find new and innovative ways to help them learn and get by in 'our world'. But behind each of those children, stand proudly, their parents.
Can we just have a moment to give a round of applause to the parents out there? KUDOS to you! You absolutely deserve it.
I love working with my client's families. I could sit for hours listening to their stories both good and bad, and brainstorming new ideas to help their situation.
Sometimes I feel like the best way to help the child is to help the parent. I could come up with a million behaviour plans, strategies, and routines for a child and do it all day at school. But if the parent/guardian isn't on board with me and not implementing these ideas at home, then we may just have a problem.
So, to kick things off, I'm calling out to the moms, dads, aunts/uncles...whoever supports a child with a disability to share your stories with other readers’ right here on Ms. Jam's. Post your questions, comments, concerns and together, we'll find a solution. I'm looking forward to hearing from all of you.
