“At LCF Kids, we don’t just teach bike riding — we teach independence.”

He has autism and attention challenges.
His parents weren’t sure this moment would ever come.
But today… he rode on his own.

Confidence. Focus. A moment they’ll never forget.
This is what happens when you teach with patience, belief, and movement. 🚲💙

Navigating the Spectrum — Clarity for Parents Starts Here :Parents don’t need more opinions about autism — they need direction.When you finally understand what you’re looking at, the overwhelm fades and confidence takes over.That’s exactly why I wrote Navigating the Spectrum.It’s not another textbook… it’s a starting point — the roadmap every parent wishes they had from day one.Inside the book you’ll learn:• What early signs actually mean (in plain English, not medical jargon)• How movement and motor skills fuel communication• Do’s & Don’ts so you don’t waste time on trial-and-error• Activities you can do at home to build confidence and connectionWhen parents understand → children progress.It’s that simple.Autism doesn’t have to feel like guesswork.Direction creates breakthroughs.Your child isn’t behind — they just need someone who knows #

THE MEDICAID WAIVER TRUTH – THEY HOPED YOU’D NEVER FIND OUT.
Graduate students entering master’s programs—what you’re being told about the Medicaid Waiver is only part of the story. Yes, you may qualify. But that doesn’t guarantee instant access, full support, or a seamless career path in special needs services. Red-tape, delays and under-funding mean families and professionals often wait—while your time and training ticks by.

Don’t just study the system—understand it, challenge it, change it. If you’re committing your future to kids with special needs, you owe it to them and yourself to know how the funding and support really works. This isn’t hype—it’s real work, real lives, real access.

When Washington slashes 90% of special-ed staff, it’s not just numbers on paper — it’s quality of service that takes the hit. Fewer specialists, heavier caseloads, delayed support, and our kids lose momentum. For families who’ve fought for inclusion, opportunity and real progress, this isn’t theoretical — it’s personal. We’ve spent years building programs that work. Are we ready to watch them collapse? ”Hashtags:

🌟 THIS WIN IS BIGGER THAN A RACE 🌟

Today wasn’t just about crossing the finish line first.
It was about crossing a milestone — of confidence, discipline, and self-belief.

When my daughter ran that 100-meter race, she didn’t just win with her legs…
She won with heart, focus, and grit.

Because what we’re really building isn’t just speed — it’s character.
We’re raising young girls who know that success isn’t luck… it’s work, consistency, and mindset.

🏆 This win represents more than a medal.
It represents discipline learned through practice.
Perseverance built through tough days.
And a championship mentality that starts at home.

As parents, it’s our job to create an environment where success feels possible, visible, and expected —
where our kids understand that being a winner starts long before the race ever begins.

This is how we build leaders.
This is how we shape a brighter future.
One victory. One lesson. One child at a time.

Screen time isn’t just a distraction — it’s rewiring how our kids connect, move, and grow.
For children with autism, too much screen time can quietly block social development, communication, and motor skills. When the screen becomes the comfort zone, real-world interaction fades, and emotional growth slows down.

We need movement, eye contact, and real conversation to rebuild what screens are taking away.
It’s time to help our kids find balance — to move, connect, and grow beyond the screen.

🎯 Let’s break the screen cycle before it breaks development.

Is our school system failing our children?”
School lunch programs are being slashed. PE is vanishing. Funding is drying up.
We’re not crying politics — just sounding a warning: when you cut movement, meals, and support, kids lose more than programs — they lose confidence, focus, and opportunity.

What’s happening right now:
• Schools reduce physical education classes and recess
• Lunch budgets shrink, ingredients suffer
• Funding diverted from basics and support services
• Kids sitting more, learning less, struggling quietly

To parents, teachers, and communities:
✅ Watch what’s being cut.
✅ Demand the essentials (PE, nutrition, support).
✅ Share your stories.
✅ Speak up before “the basics” become “the memory.”

Let’s use our voice so our children don’t lose theirs.
Comment “YES” if you believe schools must protect movement and meals.
Share this video so every parent, every district sees it.
