Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I should comb the archives when I have time but for now, anyone have experience with or thoughts on these methods?

I don't have any experience with floortime, but we've recently started with RDI. My opinion of it is mixed at the moment. We are still in the parent training stages. Intuitively, it seems to address the precise areas we are concerned about with our son.

A few bloggers gave me the push to pursue it more..
  • Tammy Glaser gives a LOT of info and videos on how RDI has helped her 19 year old daughter, plus a lot of info on RDI and other helpful therapies. It's called Aut-2B-Home in Carolina

  • The blog http://thismom.blogs.com/this_mom/]This Mom has an excellent post on how to start RDI on your own and see if it makes any difference.


    • There are many others but these are two good places to start. Hope this helps...
