Why Your Child Needs a “No Consent” Letter for Restraint and Seclusion

Tyler’s first step into the YLEO journey was chemical free oral care, 4 years running & another cavity free visit. We still have the “stain” but it has not developed into a cavity. Information is showing that fluoride is a neurotoxin and an endocrine disrupter. Another bonus our 2nd visit without having to use the calming oils!

I struggle getting Tyler to brush in the mornings. I spoke to the dentist and asked her to write a note to him about brushing in the morning, she agreed. We will hang in the bathroom as a reminder & in February when we go back she will ask him about it. We discussed it on the way home and he’s ready to hang it by the sink!

(so much progress because Tyler IS comprehending what he is reading in this note)

Yesterday was the 2nd day that Tyler was partaking in communion with me (instead of waiting after church)  This is so near and dear to my heart.  Without YL, cleaner living and prayer this would not be possible.   There were years that I couldn’t go to church at all due to his behaviors. Then in elementary school I started going to church by sitting in the lobby, then in the lobby with the sanctuary door open, then to the cry room and then to reception room with the sliding door open.  Now we sit in the sanctuary on the back row so he can step into the lobby when Hymns are played.   I created (and got approved) a confirmation book for basic simplicity and understanding (faith is very abstract very hard for the autism brain) After having him confirmed, the Pastor was agreeing to give him communion after the service.  But 2 Sundays ago was our first time down to the alter during service, receiving communion together. Yesterday with the second time and looks like now we have a new routine. I allow him to hold and squeeze my arm as we make our way to the alter, I am right beside him and my hand on his back when needed.  Thankfully our church is a very very very very small church and we’ve been attending since he was born and they have watched him blossom into the young man he is today.

We are getting ready to leave for another new adventure.(He just came to me and said, you know it’s x:xx o’clock and I told him what time did I tell you we need to leave, he said x:xx, I said so let me know when It’s x:xx so we can get ready! So proud of him this summer for “staying busy” and trying new things with new people. He will be attending the xxxx xxxxx Day Camp at VCMPC this week. Some familiar faces, some new faces, new activities (big step for mom too – when your child doesn’t have the best of communication skills, it’s hard) I have goals for Tyler for future summers, but one step at a time – for his best interest and my sanity – baby steps are the best way for us to proceed LOL. (Next week he will go to one of his favorite summer activities – another day camp – this one he’s been doing since elementary school) #progressnotperfection #yleo #puritymatters #tryingnewthings #meetingnewpeople #oilyspectrum #chemicalfreelivingmakingallthedifference #overcomingoverwhelmingfeelings #calmingoils #foundationalsupplements #cleanereatingthoughnotthecleanest #Godisgood #younglivingchangingourlives #member2282859 #patience #tylerstimenotsocietytime
