HelpRe: Children
in reply to a message by SlytherClaw
Lucie, Henry and Parker all welcomed the quads with open arms into their family. Parker was initially very unsettled by the sudden influx of children into his home but carefully, and with sensitivity, Lucie and Henry have brought together Parker and his new siblings.
It has now been a year since Antonia, Tabitha, Huxley and Lowen came to their forever home and the children are doing very, very well. Alongside Parker, the children have started primary school and have all been put into the same class. The school are very welcoming of the children's unusual circumstances and are aware of their individual needs, putting into place everything the children need to flourish. For Antonia this means a having special "nipple-pad" for her to sit on to help her understand where her body is; she also takes part in physical interventions where she is supported to cross the midline of her body and keep control of her limbs. Tabitha meanwhile has been given tinted glasses to help her read and make sense of words on paper, she doesn't understand phonics very well but the school are supporting her to read and write through whole-word recognise and cursive lettering. For Huxley his dysgraphia is supported through the use of chunky pencils and special-grips he can slide onto his tool of choice - like Antonia, he struggles with fine manipulative skills and the school have brought in many specialist equipment for the two children to use so that they can cut, draw, paint, mould and join with the same accuracy as their peers. Lastly, Lowen has made astounding progress since starting school. Initially, both Lucie and Henry, and the school had concerns as to how much support Lowen was going to need and they queried whether they were doing the right thing putting him in a mainstream establishment. But in the end Lucie and Henry couldn't bear to separate him after everything they had done to keep him with his siblings and so the school have employed somebody to be with Lowen throughout the school day, supporting him during transitions and social conflicts.
All five children are enrolled onto swimming lessons but Lucie and Henry wanted to give their children the option to explore their individual talents too, therefore, in the last year every child has taken up another extracurricular club. Parker is playing football, Antonia karate, Tabitha gymnastics, Huxley rugby and Lowen horse riding.
