Group ABA or at home ABA??!!

After taking this week off with the stomach flu the pre-school has noticed a huge difference in Joe. The noticed after Spring Break as well. The difference, Joe's speech, interactions, and just overall being. They said that he is so much more interactive with his peers, and inititive taking. Now I wonder, do I switch from the Group program to the At Home program. The difference...the group program is out of my home, he gets more hours per dollar, it's 5 days a week, I only send him 4, it's 30 minutes from my house, and my son is extra tired, and has no time for regular 'play dates' The home program, is in my home....I don't like that , home is to relax, not to work, less hours, less travel time for me anyways...lol....and the kids...less money. It seems like it's a no brainer I guess when I put it like this though right??!! Well we have a team meeting on the 22nd of this month, and that gives us a week and a half to see how Joe changes at pre-school. I do think that we are probably gonna end up taking him out of the group program though. I just haven't really broke the news to Gary yet, I know that he's gonna be estatic about it!! He hates that place...lol...it's too bare and clinical, no distractions for some kids that get distracted really easily! But in reality, you must adjust for what the childs needs of the moment are and adapt to give them the best base for life. He does start kindergarden next Sept.
