Corwin Communications
Corwin likes alternate forms of communication. Frequently we will ask him a question and he will make a gesture or perform some action which he apparently believes will be clear to us. If we persist he will patiently explain that “when I do
this it means ‘no’ and when I do
that it means ‘yes’ ”. Sometimes it sign language, or spelling the words out in the air, or sometimes throwing a ball in to different corners of the room. I think that we should get some slack since he doesn’t seem to use the same signals more than once or twice. What I probably need to do is make a note of one set and use them on him at some later point in time. Heh.
“Dad, can I have my allowance?”
[Dad throws a ball in to the northeast corner, indicating yes but not right now]
