[blindkid] Potty Training and eating independantly

Mon Aug 17 19:57:33 UTC 2009

Hi: 

       I was just wondering if anyone had any tips on potty training. My daughter is kind of big now and I don't think the communication is going well when I am trying to teach her to potty train. If anyone has any tips I would greatly appreciate it. And Any tips for getting her to eat on her own.

I'm curious about the use of orientation maps by blind people.  My son's O&M instructor has him spend a lot of time creating tactile maps of his school.  Do others do this?  Do people use this kind of map in every day life?  It doesn't make a lot of sense to me--if he is familiar with the environment why does he need a map?  If he's not, wouldn't exploration be a good way to learn about the building?
