At one point he started repeating every word they said, but with a consistent sound shift.
Love it!!!
It's "play based," but they were unwilling to play in the ways he likes to play
I agree that this particular individual isn't a good match for your family.
He was trying to seek out "safe" places, and hid between my knees a lot while staring at a toy, ...By 'subjecting,' I guess I was referring to the bullying tactics. Repeating the same word louder and louder and with more and more unpleasant exageration until he gave in and just said it. Getting in his personal space ... He tried to put a table between himself and the assessor, but she wouldn't let him get into the chair by himself, and he freaked a little when she grabbed him, -Mich

It's frustrating when you percieve things that other people just don't see what the problem is. I just want you to know that totally see the problem. I do think that a different provider might have a different approach and be more respectful. You'd probably have to pre-screen the next one if this issue keeps up. It's frustrating.
It sounds like your DH has handled things for now. I'm so glad you got a chance to speak your mind here. It's important and our neighbors get to do it daily!
Yippee!
