I don't want the last thing people remember about this blog to be The Bad Things.

But I want the thing people see when they come here now to reflect what this blog has always been about, so I'm including a few of my favorite pictures from the last two years here.

By all of these measures the child was functioning within appropriate developmental parameters. OT research resourcs. OTdirect: Links: Research Resources If you know of other useful resources, please let us know using the feedback form at the bottom of the page.
