- Believe in your child – the more you believe in her the more she will believe in herself
- Don’t constantly talk and ask about with whom he did or didn’t talk today – it raises his anxiety level and his feeling like a failure index!
- See your child as so much more than someone with a difficulty (SM) – see him as a person who sings, dances, is wise, kind, funny…….
- Be aware that the hyper-sensitivity that caused the SM can be channeled in the future to meaningful relationships and a deep understanding of the world
- Help her develop her talents and her personality so that she has achievements to feel good about
- Look around to find the warmest, most understanding school environment you can
- Invite potential friends home – and ensure a good time is had
- Get the best, most experienced therapist you can find, as early on as possible
Do’s and Don’ts for Teachers!
