In one of the Q&A's posted on our favourite AI Facebook scam page...Val talks about Jessica's education .
She faught to keep Jessica in a reg. School instead using aids to help Jessica, because she wanted Jessica to be treated like everyone else, also...Val never took Jessica for ANY ABA therapy ...ever.
ABA therapy is crucial in helping both the "client" and the family increase social abilities and development ...it's how we taught our daughter all of her routines, acceptable behaviours in public, bounderies, daily chores, understanding social cues,
Like....saying hello, goodbye, shaking hands saying please and thank you...when around others in public social interactions ..all of which Jessica has zero of.
ABA therapy is great for various issues like autism and a disorder known as ODD Oppositional Defiant Disorder.
The fact Val refused to get Jessica proper help especially where she lives in Ringgold Georgia...their area is saturated with so many programs, schools,therapist ,specialists , outreach programs, community programs, adult learning and peer groups, gatherings ...I spent an hour researching what's available, thinking maybe Val was at a disadvantage ...she's surrounded by so many available institutions for someone like Jessica .... It's outrageous Jessica doesn't attend anything.
Jessica's behaviours could be an issue but again ABA therapy would of helped with that.
Not to get to " clinical " but.... We know Jessica was diagnosed with moderate to severe Intellectual Developmental Disability which is very often accompanied by a diagnosis of ODD- Oppositional Defiant Disorder ( argumentative, aggressive, refusing to do as instructed, tantrums, self centered, easily aggravated , speaking harshly mean, threatening behaviours, ) sound familiar?
Again.... Val has ample professional agencies available for Jessica and chooses to hire....Marlow and simply confine Jessicas world to home and family.
I'm sorry ..... But that's abuse.
A friend of mine mentioned the ODD and I wasn't too familiar but read up on it and it effects all kinds of people not just autistic or IDD...but is extremely common with people on the spectrum .
