What the Heck

OK pet peeve time...
I must admit that one thing that REALLY gets under my skin, is when some people don't really state what they expect from you OR if there are rules you need to follow when dealing with them.
Let me explain.
Today being election day I felt that it would be safe to go vote. I did not know that I would spend nearly two hours standing in line. Last time we voted there was NO wait time.
When I got back I was reprimanded for leaving... I was told I was not allowed to leave while therapy is in progress. The only thing is no one EVER bothered to tell me. We have been going there for several months and if I was unable to take him, my mother-in-law would go and drop him off. If I would have known we would be having a different conversation. There was nothing written or otherwise stated.
Why this bothers me:
1. you set the other person up for failure when you don't express your goals or expectations.
I am NOT a mind reader. Tell me what you expect. If there are rules Tell me.

There are things that bug us in general about Jonathan's therapy but one of them is the general lack of meaningful communication. There has not been any communication to tell me anything extra I can do and all we ever seem to do is hear over and over all the negative stuff. He's not progressing(but never once have I heard how they test him or what he CAN do..)

Honestly right now, If you are a therapist and have been largely negative and defeatist about Jonathan, We do not trust you and will do our best to lobby for a re evaluation by a third party. Sorry, but we cannot trust you if you take the negative stance you have. It's easier to say it won't change and don't do your job.

OK but anyways...
In OTHER news..
We are waiting until after all of our elected officials are in office---here locally all of the incumbants won here- South Carolina... One Democrat, One Republican John Spratt, and Jim DeMint, we will be calling them for our own special reasons ;)
