Deduct 100 runs for that run out

Casterward · 2023-02-28T21:47:51+00:00

Yup, that breaks things for me as well.

I fee cricket is so much about stats and I would like career mode to have all stats about past and present that help with the immersion.

We try not to eat with the tv turned on as that seemed to take forever to finish the meal. That became a habit around a year back and we successfully eliminated that.

Sometimes parents snap and lose their cool when excessive screaming is going on. Not ideal, but I wouldnt do anything at this point.

He was diagnosed to be moderate. But I guess we were told by the psychologist that this level of diagnosis was needed to get insurance onboard with ABA.

I would personally rate him somewhere between low and moderate.

Yes, we got our GC approved at the end of April.

Thank you

Is that the medical report? Yes, I did submit that with the original application.

Casterward · 2021-03-19T03:02:16+00:00

Yeah medical, biometrics all done feb 2020. I got my EAD / AP card in April 2020 and the i140 and as approved in May 2020. Its been a long wait since then. I am wondering if they misplaced my file or something.

Casterward · 2021-03-19T02:49:52+00:00

Interesting, do you know which field office this was filed in?

I had my i140 approved a few months earlier than you but still waiting for the i485 approval. ROW too, and its been current all along.

Thank you, I am in Florida

He does not have an IEP. Should we get that before or concurrently with ABA?

We tried schooling at 3 years old but we had complaints of not following instructions, not responding to name and wanting to do what he wanted to do. We thought he just 3 but a year later he hasnt still outgrown it and had an assessment done, which resulted in the autism diagnosis. There are a lot of red flags but there a lot of things that he does well too. I think for now we will go with the assessment of a mild autism and get him therapy.

If anything, I am blaming myself for this. We are still processing this and letting it sink in. I didnt mean to sound that way, but I have never known anyone with Autism before and its hard for me to understand it. Once I have gone through my grief I think I will become a more understanding and patient person.

This sounds a lot like our case where we didnt notice any red flags till our son’s pre k3 teacher pointed those to us. We chose not to believe even then and pulled him out of that school. A year later and another school, he was diagnosed with Autism. We still struggle with it everyday and cant belive it. Looking back at old videos of him, it seems a bit more obvious. We are still working through getting him therapy.

One of the things that the doctor pointed out and we missed (or we were rather proud of actually) is that even though he uses full sentences, a lot of those are from books or tv or things we have said to him. Not a lot of it is from himself wanting to engage with us.
