Dear korg,
"...would you please share some speech therapy information with me?..."
I have just asked my husband about it. He said for our daughter's speech therapy, there are not much technique to apply. All they do is just try to opne her mouth and stick her toungue out. :;pppp:
My husband also said he contacted the school district for therapy arrangement.

I think you can send your son to regular school here and get special care.

Hi ndw & korg,

Just wanna to cheers you guys up.

I am sure you may already heard something similar to this one many times, still, I want to share it with you. (Long story short) A full-time working divorced mother has a child has asthma, eczema, and dyslexia! Now this child became an adult and has earned the highest credential: Ph.d.

Have you heard a book call:Against Medical Advice by James Patterson, Hal Friedman, Cory Friedman. this is a very good material to support your spirit, hope it helps.

Keep remind yourself that your love, care, and patience are the most important elements for your dear child's future. You can do it. We are Chinese, we are tough

Yeah! Going back HKG. Not that I miss HK that badly, but family & friends.

"...I will not able to be a stay home mom as good as you do..." by Nillie_Mami

Actually, I am not the one stay hom full time, my husband does. So, it is easy for me to say we are home schooling our kids.

I am the one who work for a company to earn salary for our family expenses.:tongue:

korg,

My 5 years old daughter, 平安 is the name I gave to her to use here, is in Regional Center. It is a government fund program country wise. They provide PT, OT, ST depends on individual children's development and how effective the therapy apply to the child. We did not get much attention to her from the Regional Center assigned case manager. They probably already give up on her.

We cannot get much help from the government.

Is you son also in Regional Center?

korg,
Also, you need to communicate to the agency which provide service to your son right now. File complaint and request hearing to have OT.
never give up and this is the point.!

Don't give up. I have met some parents with special needs children recently and they fight for all kinds of things for their kids. A mom even told me that the teachers in her son's school do notreally help her kid. They just want him to graduate even though he's not ready. She's looking for an attorney to sue the school. At the same time, she visits different schools to find the suitable one for her son.

nillie-mami & ndw:
would you please share some speech therapy information with me?
my son is 4.5 years old, he has autism. receiving speech therapy twice a week at school (IEP). but they dont give occupational therapy. i want to find more service for him.
he can speak but he doesn't understand question. we had speech therapy in HK, i know some technique, but i'm not sure it's same as here or not.
i have a new born bb (4months), i cant give all my time to my son, i feel so sorry to him. i wanna help him as soon as possible. there're many information about autism in internet... but it takes time to search!!
it's really not easy to be a special kids parent. sometimes i wanna give up, but when i see my son's smiles. i told myself that, i'm the only one can help him now. "never give up" i keep saying this.
i need some support...

ndw,
beside, I have to say, you are very tough and a perfect model for us.
I will not able to be a stay home mom as good as you do... I will cry all day long if I have to face the never-ended chores.
I am really not good with that.. I can be a part time stay home mom on public holiday or weekend.
Plus the home schooling piece..
one of my child has speech delay, one of my child is a gifted.. and I am not that patience.. so I gave myself an excure.. let the teacher to take care of.. my job just to earn money and make other things better.

ndw,
In your case.. You did not give your children a choice. Because they are learning 3 languages instead of 2. as their grandparents do not speak mandarin.
It is up to you if you wanna talk with them in Cantonese at this period, because that will be easier for them to understand and will not get mixed up while they talk to their grandparents.

For me, I speak Cantonese to them, because I speak Cantonese to my husband, my BK moms here in NYC, and my parents in law here in NY, also it is the language in NYC.. (still, but sure will change later as Amanda's school offer Mandarin from this year).
I only teach them in Cantonese because it will be easy for them to understand.. while they also learn Russian, and Spanish.. I don't wanna give them too much pressure on it.
Amanda is 7 years old, so she know the different between Cantonese and Mandarin.
For Gabriel (only 3.5), we only talk to him in Cantonese and English (as he stays in day care about 8-11hours weekdays) His English is better than Chinese since he gets into daycare.

Sorry, I am going to off topic here to talk to Nillie_Mami ......

原帖由 Nillie_Mami 於 10-8-3 21:08 發表
...About the speech therapy. They determined it by the evaluation. If your child is over 67% behind. They will not cut your service because it is a law there. My son (going to be 4 years old this winter) still receive twice a week service, and they supposed to increase to 3 times a week. but my husband refused. As we want to do home teaching, we got the material from speech therapist and we can do it at home. Well, we had big fight about it before.. because after 3 years old, early intervention program will be document permanently on our child's record, but he couldn't speak, and the best way to help him, is getting help from the service which paid by our insurance. ...

hi Nillie_Mami
Thank you very much for your sharing. One dicision once awhile will come up to my mind to make. How many language should I talk to my daughter. For my huaband, he has no choice, he has to speak in English. Other than English, I have 2 other choice: Cantonese and Manderian. I would like to get my daughter to speak Manderian becasue it seems to be a easiest language to learn and pick up. Beside, I speak Manderian to my other daughters and my parents speak Cantonese to my daughters. They cannot speak English.

我係隔黎個post留左以下資料，你可以睇下：
“如果你中英文流利，可以做傳譯，只要你有land line電話就得。我都好想做，但我只有cell phone, 無 home phone.

另外，我前一排去左考法庭傳譯筆試，以下網址係夏老威既制度，各STATE既制度有小小唔同。但我估大同小異。所以你黎到後，搵下你個STATE 既JUDICIARY 既網址。可以考慮下，我識好多人都密密接JOB，當正職咁做：
http://www.courts.state.hi.us/services/court_interpreting/becoming_a_court_interpreter.html
對我地啲填鴨黎講，筆試唔難。我無考口試。因為我自己有正職。當你考完筆試，如你又同意，你個名會POST 係網站內，咁其他律師，甚至其他機構，公司都可以搵你。我個名都係個PAGE 上。。。HEHE。

ayaya,
If you are not coming in near future, like 2-3 months, let's say... you are coming next june, you have 1 year of time. I would suggest you to do it in HK.
You need to know which state you are going, then, go to that state's dept of education. then, download the application form for registration. also have to submit your transcript to the assigned agency from the dept of edu to do your education and license verification. that usually takes about 6-9 months time if you submit everything in timely manner and no error between it. :)
I don't know the salary about it.
you can go to salary.com and do some research on it.
Hope that helps!
