  • Words Don't Always Say What You Think They Do
    Shay commented on the article | over 2 years ago

    Your post "Words Don't Always Say What You Think They Do" could have easily been written about my 7 year-old son Thomas.  Our home is full of words and phrases, and sometimes the words are just words.  Sometimes the words have very precise meaning (or at least a precisely-understood meaning).  When Thomas is upset, he uses what we call "distress words", and usually his behavior becomes his way of communicating.  We do believe that Thomas does seem to understand much of what is said to him, especially if we talk "slow and low".
