I\u2019ve encouraged families to open up to me, honestly report their routines, challenges, feelings, and dreams.&nbsp; Only when the tables were turned did I realize how much I did not want to talk to this person.&nbsp; She was lovely, warm, and accepting, but the intimate details of our family life were so sensitive at that time that I struggled to be fully honest.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Lesson:&nbsp; <strong>Invest in building trust.&nbsp; It is not inherent in the relationship, it must be earned.<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Writing functional and meaningful goals is also harder than it sounds. When it came time to write Maelle\u2019s IFSP, I said (it sounds like a joke after teaching functional goal writing for so long), \u201cI want her to walk.\u201d&nbsp; My primary service provider dutifully replied, \u201cHow will Maelle walking increase her participation in your family?\u201d&nbsp; Well played.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Lesson:&nbsp; <strong>The developmental model is ingrained in the thinking of parents.&nbsp; We want to know that they can do what they \u201cshould\u201d do next.&nbsp; The prompt given by my provider redirected my thinking to focus on Maelle and my family rather than on the developmental norms.&nbsp; We all need that prompt.&nbsp; Probably often.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u201cComparison is the thief of joy.: Theodore Roosevelt felt my pain as I navigated parenting of twins.&nbsp; I know there is a wide range of typical.&nbsp; I know that cognitively.&nbsp; However, when one walked and the other waited four months to follow in her footsteps, I received a lot of reminders about that wide range of typical.&nbsp; More importantly, none of those reminders eased my heart about what Maelle was not yet doing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Lesson:&nbsp; <strong>Approach families with deep empathy.&nbsp; Hearing that she would do it (whatever \u201cit\u201d was at the time) never made me feel better.&nbsp; Instead, maybe say, \u201cI know this is hard.&nbsp; I am here to support you.\u201d&nbsp; I would have liked that a lot.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Brek and Maelle are first graders now.&nbsp; They are strong and perfect and unique, each in her own way.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-2701\" src=\"https:\/\/www.veipd.org\/earlyintervention\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Jen_Newton.jpg\" alt=\"Jen Newton\" width=\"98\" height=\"148\">Jen Newton is an Assistant Professor of Early Childhood\/Early Childhood Special Education in the School of Education at Saint Louis University.
