> Yeah, I was a little surprised because of the degree of empathy, and understanding you show to members of this board, however I do understand that this is one "social" forum and you may have different functional ability in others. Along with your other descriptions, I understand now why you want to check this out.

Thank you for being surprised. :) This is going to sound odd, but I like posting on the board because I have time to think before posting on emotional topics. I can review all I've read and heard others say to come up with an appropriate response. I parent the same way. My husband says he can see my hard drive working as I come up with the appropriate response to my son's behavior. Hmmm, temper tantrum, page 234, Touchpoints.
In real time conversations, especially with more than 2 people, I generally either end up alienating everyone or, frustrated, retiring from the lists to watch in silence.> I regard to approaching Universities, I would simply check out the schools on the web to determine who to contact in a particular department or research journal articles to see if any have been published by professors at local universities. Then, you could simply email the professor and explain your situation. Let me know if you need additional suggestions!
Thank you, Lini. That is very kind.
