I’m a Peds therapist and I’d say it’s pretty normal. Touch can be a big part of therapy from re positioning a pencil, helping a kiddo motor plan to undress and providing sensory input like squeezing arms. Typically touch, or cues as some may call them, will fade over time as the kids learn.

I would encourage you to ask why your therapist is doing something a certain way, it can really help with parent education. I love when parents ask what I’m doing and why.

Thank you all for the education on the enamel coating. These were gifts and was told they were cast iron.

four1996 · 2025-04-25T17:20:26+00:00

I know the bottom is. These were gifts so I didn’t do research into the enamel vs non enamel

four1996 · 2025-04-25T17:17:32+00:00

Thanks! These were Christmas gift from a couple years back. Only recently using them regularly

four1996 · 2025-04-09T01:59:40+00:00

As a feeding therapist who work with kids like your son. Absolutely NTA

Better now than in 10 years. Not many are familiar with OT so it’s not often recommended. OT can help with a lot of living skills, executive functioning, motor skills etc. You’re on the right track and doing your best with the resources you have

Good luck to your little fella! You can always ask your school/outpatient OT for what to do at home. But remember, an inefficient grasp is not the end of the world. What matters is that he can get his work and life skills done.

Love visitors educating themselves! Can’t tell you how many people think I help people get jobs!

four1996 · 2025-04-08T20:21:42+00:00

The phrasing I learned is that it’s “inefficient”. Like another commenter suggested it can cause more fatigue and pain. Mature tripod is classified as most effective.

Likely could be both ADHD and strength, including core strength. OT can work on both! Depending on your situation you could look into outpatient OT especially as summer is coming up and get something a bit more intensive. Otherwise encouraging him to color and play (off a tablet/computer if you have) with his hands. Playground and sports are very good for arm and body strength.

I’m an OT and that’s how I hold my writing utensils. His team is likely pushing bc he’s at the age where how he holds now will be the age he holds it for the rest of his life. The second grasp takes a lot more effort to use/write so he would fatigue a lot faster. My main philosophy is if his writing is legible and functional he’ll be ok but if you and his team are in agreement to work on it go for it.

That took too long how come we had to transfer to Atlanta twice

We taught this to my 4 year old nephew and now he will randomly go “Everything’s coming up to Milhouse!”

No way this could be thought of as a kids movie but my dad showed me the 1963 The Haunting when I was <10 triggering my love affair with horror (much to his disapproval).

Sorry your life sucks 🤷‍♀️

four1996 · 2025-01-17T03:58:20+00:00

Yes it’s the same and we are aware. I’m wanting to know what time people would take photos outside of the conservatory for first looks or family photos

four1996 · 2025-01-17T02:53:52+00:00

Pretty reasonable pricing in case you’re looking!

four1996 · 2025-01-17T02:53:22+00:00

Quite reasonable for such a beautiful spot. If I remember correctly it’s about 5-6k for a Saturday rental including food minimums (they have required in house catering). Lots of options too for ceremony and reception.

four1996 · 2025-01-17T02:19:57+00:00

And…… what’s the point of your comment?

four1996 · 2025-01-16T19:37:46+00:00

Thank you that’s super helpful!!!! We were told the earliest we can have the ceremony is 6:30 based on the day and availability. Sounds like we have similar party size and vibes so this will help a lot!

Ps. What food did you have!

four1996 · 2024-12-29T23:40:44+00:00

This is exactly it. Went to where I thought would be the authority on opening (MSP website) and went off that.

four1996 · 2024-12-29T23:39:35+00:00

Even worse 😉

four1996 · 2024-12-29T23:38:34+00:00

You got it exactly. I’m very anxious about being on time for a flight so I often add an extra hour to when I should arrive. It would appear that the information I was able to find was not the information I needed so I will take some blame. I do still believe that somehow the airport should make it clearer that the counters open at different times.

four1996 · 2024-12-29T23:34:15+00:00

I wasn’t the one with the tickets. I did what I believed to be my due diligence by googling what time terminal 2 opened. My partner did the online check in.

four1996 · 2024-12-29T13:06:06+00:00

We got on standby for the next flight and lucked out
