As a child with SPD I'm thankful for this video, my mom she has never bothered to understand my huge issues with processing things like going to stores or touching certain materials and all that kind of stuff so I'm just glad there are actually people putting in the effort for their kid
Same problem with my dad and I agree that it’s so nice to see parents being so caring and supportive about this
Just gotta mention the GAPS protocol - it works wonder for anything neurological, autoimmune or gut related.
The first week is complete and utter chaos - but the rewards are miraculous - I only tried it out of utter desperation for my youngest child, he has a long list of neurological conditions - very very intelligent but he was still nonverbal at 5.5 yrs old with severe dyspraxia and secondary selective mutism - I was told he would most likely never talk, not because he didn't want to - because he physically couldn't - this was becoming increasingly frustrating for him, sensory issues out the wazoo, and regularly trapped in a locked in state, or having no control of his body movements - I done the week of hell, nearly gave up... Cause you know what kids with sensory issues are like with food!!! And he protest starved himself for 3 days... But on the afternoon of the third day he was so hungry and I was so desperate for him to eat that I put curry powder in the bone broth (he had been refusing to eat until he got a curry pie) he guzzle it and kept drinking it.
By the end of the second week he had a heap of words and was putting three word sentences together, making eye contact, no longer walked on his toes, could walk up the stairs without help... I met my chatterbox outgoing son.
This is so good, Michelle. My son just got diagnosed with SPD and it has been a challenge. We deal with the hitting and screaming. It is so hard. Thanks for the encouragement!!
I hope getting a diagnosis has been helpful. 💚 Let me know if you have any questions!
I have a 3 year old son with spd. He is under-reactive, so he doesn’t feel pain like he should. He rarely cries when he gets injured and is careless with his body during tantrums. Constantly has bruises, welts, and goose eggs. If he’s not hurting himself during a meltdown he takes it out on whatever/whoever is closest to him. Hitting or biting a sibling or parent, throwing objects across the room, or yelling words that he knows aren’t nice. “No, shut up!” Is his current phrase. We have been on a waiting list since September for OT and PT, but still haven’t heard anything. Do you have any videos that you walk through an example of what to do during a meltdown and after. I’m a homeschool, foster mom of 6 kids 11 and under and everyone in our house is stressed and desperate for tools to help.
Thank you for sharing! You made me as a mom made me feel a bit better. My son hasn’t been fully diagnosed but i know he has spd. He is 3 & we are going to start preschool soon & its tough & im just so anxious about it.
This was an awesome video. My daughter started showing SPD at the age of 3. I did see a few things like she didn't like being upside down or going on slides. But at age 3 she became a very picky eater, didn't want to wear clothes, etc. She does have a mild form of SPD. But it is a struggle. I have some issues too. Letting her throw tantrums trigger my high sensitive side too. I have a hard time with loud noises and crowds too. How I handle her is that I will take her to the room and lay down with her as I hug her and tell her that I love her. Get her to talk about things. In your video you mentioned everyone is different and you are right. My daughter she is more a happy child so making her laugh sometimes work. For Mom's out there. Hang in there. It's hard but don't get frustrated. Like Michelle said learn to help your child and don't take things personal. They are not doing this to upset you but g they are having a hard time figuring it out in their mind.
Thank you for the discussion. What I got from it will be just a few simple steps: let them have their meltdown, don’t get worked up myself and come back with love when they are ready
Hi! I'm so happy I found you. I needed to hear this. Thank you ❤️
Thank you! Your words helped me so much!
How do we trust a diagnosis when they are all so similar,all overlapping? Who can put all the different problems together like a puzzle for my son?
Good video. I'm watching this right after going on a headphones run, as I learned to always have a few spare headphones in styles and colors the kids like after I was informed one's headphones were broken the night before they were going to be in a situation where they would need them.
SO.GOOD.
Wonderful content ❤
As a child I can’t be the only person with this problem I have SPD and in our school on the register it says needs so like if someone needs a special colour paper or has a time out pass it’s on the register however on the register for me all it says it that I can wear ear defenders so for example yesterday in science I’m in a pretty big class and everyone was talking so it was loud and I had my ear defenders on but it was still quite loud with like over 20 students talking at once and I was on the brink of absolutely bursting out crying but the teacher did nothing because they don’t understand there problem
Teachers in my school care about 2 things first thing is if you’re in learning support and second thing is if it’s there probable if not they don’t care
Also can I please have more opinions on this but do other schools have students with autism is learning support because autism is classed as a learning disability but there main problem is the sensory part yet people with SPD which is only sensory don’t get help unless the teacher decides to?
Hello! My child refuses to put a jacket on when it's really cold. She says it's uncomfy for her. We tried dozens of jackets and coats! Nothing works! No hats,no socks, no gloves, no jackets for her in the world. What should I do? Let her stay at home, not to go to school? I'm so frustrated!
Such a great video Michelle. My 10 year old daughter mostly just shuts down for meltdowns now (especially in public), angry face and grunting. She refuses to talk until after she calms down and sometimes I don't even understand what is causing the meltdown. She's a complete chatter box every other time and even if it's a mild trigger (prior to meltdown) she will say what is bothering her. Do you have any tips for drawing words out of a child during a meltdown so we can help remove the trigger if it is possible? Or is it just not possible if they don't want to talk? I'm super grateful that she's able to keep more in control in public but it is incredibly difficult to help her out of the meltdown if the trigger is still there!
I can relate to this very well. We have been dealing with this same issue a lot recently. I will work on a video talking about how we handle it in our home. All the best!
Thanks for sharing🤗
When I first found out my twin boys had SPD I joined some FB groups and would ask for advice and a lot of the responses I got would be "I just don't take my kid in public". I just couldn't understand how people could just remove their children from life. Id rather troubleshoot. My kids need to learn how to cope with this.
Hi thx for video, r u a therapist?
