Oh WG,
I'm so sorry that happened!
How does Mite feel about it? How was the rest of his day?
Just two days ago I turned off the lights and encouraged DS10 to walk 5 steps towards my voice. That experience lasted 30 seconds and was about as far as I dared push it. 30 seconds, and all I asked him to do was walk, hands free, at 10 years old. Dyspraxia is no fun. The good news on our end is just yesterday, DS10 started "constantly" throwing and catching a bean bag he had won. "I'm improving my eye-hand coordination. I can even do it with my eyes closed, watch me."
