Last week the twins had a physical. Matthew refused to do what was asked of him. He hid in the corner under the exam table until I coaxed him out. The dr had to tell him step by step what she was doing and he still refused to have his privates checked. She said he could wait til next year for that part. The dr asked me if I wanted her to document his behavior, I told her that it was up to her. She also asked if I thought medication might help. I told her I wanted to wait until after he started therapy, but I am wondering if meds might help. I am not sure what to do about it.
Matthew served his detention with no problem. He was a little standoffish when walking into the office because there were a lot of kids in there.
Behavior at home has been ok the past few days, except when it came to cleaning his room. He hid under a blanket while his twin brother cleaned their room.
Today we made stress balls with a balloon filled with playdoh. He seems to have liked that and I hope he uses it.
Matthew starts therapy again on Tuesday...I hope that I can continue to find a time that works to be able to take him. I have talked to my employer about getting on FMLA so that I don't have to worry about losing my job while I seek help for my son.
