Luke lives at home with mom (teacher) and dad (Chief Operating Officer of landscape architecture company) twin brother and 18 year old sister. Luke is a very kind empathetic and extremely smart kid. He is very creative, enjoys hands on activities, Legos, building things, electronics and making his own animatronics. He and his brother share an over-the-top love of Halloween, together they plan all year for their own Halloween home haunt.
We are really looking for someone for Luke to bond with, that isn't a therapist, doctor or teacher. He needs to be able to feel recognized for all of his wonderful qualities, and not an adult focusing on his behaviors. And while he does present some challenging behaviors, we need someone who is able to not engage with Luke when he tries to argue and to give him space if he has a meltdown.
