This is a commenter from my last Playground video post, and I’m well aware comments like this will continue to come up often. However, for those open to listening and learning, this situation highlights one of the many benefits of recordings serve for our family: 👉🏻Not only are they essential for understanding Michael, finding ways to teach, provide better support, and monitor his communication progress and well-being. Another case in point are for Security: 👉🏻If my son, who is bigger than the other boy, were to defend himself physically and inadvertently harm the boy, who would speak up for his side of the story? The other boy is capable of speaking and advocating for himself, and when adults intervene, he will be able to tell his side of the story. ❓What information will Michael be able to provide… ❓What would likely unfold when the smaller, crying child tells their parent a story that places blame on Michael… ❓Now, consider that these are young 4-year-olds at play. What would happen if they were 10-year-olds instead? 👉🏻Michael cannot advocate for himself or explain the circumstances of an incident—such as how, who, what, when, where and why it occurred. 🪖And so parents, like me, often prepare far more extensively than most when venturing into public spaces. 🗣️We do our best to serve as our children's voice, their advocate, and defend them against the challenges they might inadvertently face. 👉🏻 If my way of going about that makes some people feel "awkward," that’s beyond my concern.
