Oh she definitely heard it, everyone in a 20-foot radius heard it... but I don't know how she reacted because I immediately scurried away with him, explaining that we don't point and talk about people we don't know, no matter whether we're saying something nice/factual or not.

For awhile we had to make the rule for Minifob, "When someone is fat, we say, 'I like your hair.'" It really helped for him to have a replacement phrase, because he felt absolutely compelled to comment.

Good idea. One of my guys asked, "What's wrong with your face?" of an adult visitor last week.

How do you respond to that? (As a teacher and as the person with the face.)

The kids are on a roll this week...
Minifobette is heading into her weekly social skills playgroup, and she is hopping across the floor instead of walking. Therapist: Oh, are you hopping like a bunny? Minifobette: No, I'm doing parkour. |

We both ignored it. If I knew her, I might have turned it into a teachable moment, but this child has real deficits in receptive language and tends to explode when he doesn't understand something. So I tend to choose my moments carefully.

That's hilarious. How old is she again?

She's 5, about to turn 6 in April. Her exposure to parkour comes from spending time on YouTube with my stepkids (ages 15 and 12...)

I figured it wasn't from watching The Office. That's funny.
