      From Priscila July 9

      thats great news! i am having private convos with the psychiatrist about adams dad not being completely honest with him about everything, dr needs to know everything. i suggest you get matts DR to explain to his parents just how important it is for them to do things EXACTLY the way you teach Matt to do anything and be donsistent, because if they dont, all the hard work you and Matt do will be useless, there is no grey area for or kids, its black or its white, its one way, its always the same, or, they never grasp it. good job, i am impressed!
