Today I want to share something positive. My son is nonverbal. We understand a lot of what he wants, but sometimes we still have to guess what he likes and what he doesn't. Since he can't tell us much with words, we often make choices for him — what to wear, what to read, what music to listen to. Some things are easy. I know for sure that he loves Paddington Bear. But with other things, I admit I sometimes take advantage of my decision-making powers.
