HJA, that's so interesting that you were interested in my suggestions (ha!)... I was interested that you were interested because... not sure if you've read this in any of my other replies here, but fwiw my ds also has DCD. He really struggled with things like this in early elementary, but he's grown up from a lonely young boy in elementary school to a self-confident young teen. I'll leave out all the in-between details because they get a bit gnarly... but I hope it helps to know there are other parents here who understand and who can reassure you that all the work you do now with your son will make a difference in his life later on.

Best wishes,

polarbear
