2017
``For the Flying Cloud Family
Created on October 12, 2017
Review Due (6 months)

Created by: Amelia Huntsman, Alyssa Crockett, Lauren Pyper, Sydney Stamper

FAMILY INTRODUCTION
The Flying Cloud Family is a happy mixed family. Alex is Navajo Native American, and his
wife, Uriah is African-American. They are originally from Farmington, NM and both attended
San Juan College. Uriah received her associates and Alex received a bachelor's in engineering. It
was there that they were married and began their family.
Alex did not grow up on a Native American reservation, but his family lived near by. As a
consequence he spent much time there, learning about and being raised in a mix of cultures.
He was also raised Central Baptist, and remains a faithful member today.
Uriah, on the other hand, is an only child. She enjoys outdoor excursions and
appreciates cultural differences. She was also raised Central Baptist. These connections drew
them together.
When Alex was offered a job as an engineer at Boeing 3 years ago they relocated in
Seattle, WA with their only son, Timmy. Once there, Uriah started working as a secret shopper
around the area. Her job provides flexible hours and a welcomed additional income in addition
to Alex's.
As for raising Timmy they have chosen to attend church together, and are planning to
raise Timmy in the religion as well. Their religious beliefs affect their views on life and
interactions with others.
However, faith has wavered as Timmy began to show signs of disabilities. He was
developing typically but began having feeding issues as an infant. He is sensitive to food
textures, nor does he like to be held. This concerns the parents; as their only child they want to
snuggle with Timmy and show physical affection. However, they are unable to. They have
begun to note that he portrayed acts of aggression that are above children his age. This, of
course, worries them too and has become a strain on their marriage.
However, in their free time, to keep things as carefree as possible, the family enjoys
athletic activities such as pickle ball. For calmer activities they like family movie night and
reading novels. Individually as parents they will go out with groups of friends for lunch or a
night out, not only for fun but for emotional robust as well. Uriah has formed friendships with
some other women who attend their church, many of whom are also first-time mothers.

FAMILY STRENGTHS
The family is strong in the Baptist faith. They do not attend church as often as they would like,
but have many good friends in their church community. Their beliefs provide them with a sense of
stability and certainty in life. They feel that they have a place of belonging, and a definite path to work
towards.
The family is financially stable, Alex has a good job and Uriah has flexible hours that allow her to
be home with Timmy. They feel they are able to provide for themselves well.
The parents communicate well and embrace their cultural differences. They strengthen each
other. While extended family lives in another state, they are very kind and supportive. They have
provided good advice for Alex and Uriah to help with their first child. They feel well equipped to raise
their child.

INFORMATION SUPPORT
1st Family Concern/Priority: The family needs information on behavior management strategies
that they can implement in their home.

Current Resource/Information: The family has tried different methods for helping Timmy to self-regulate
his emotions and behavior. Time-outs do not appear to calm his emotions.

Outcome: The family is will be able to find information to assist Timmy in regulating his emotions.

Suggested Action:
Resource Type and Name: Books and websites to assist Uriah, Alex, and Timmy.
1. “Self Regulation Intervention Strategies: Keeping the Body, Mind, and Emotions” By Teresa
Garland
2. “Tools of the Mind” by Deborah J. Leong and Elena Bodrova
3. “Sensory Integration and Self-Regulation” by Frances P Connor and Marie E Anzalone
4. “How to Be a Superhero Called Self Control” by Lauren Brukener
5. https://childmind.org/article/can-help-kids-self-regulation/
6. https://www.kidsmatter.edu.au/mental-health-matters/social-and-emotional-

Rationale: These books and websites will assist the parents in supporting Timmy by helping
them understand how they should act and how to help Timmy build self control.

SPED 421: Family Resource Plan 2017
2nd Family Concern/Priority: The family desires to show physical affection; however, most physical
touch seems to quickly become overstimulating for Timmy. The family wants to show affection
through some form of touch while avoiding overstimulation for Timmy.

Current Resource/Information: Timmy is prone to overstimulation, and touch seems to cause an
adverse reaction. The family attempts to engage in brief physical contact. This is something that
Timmy is beginning to accept, although not consistently or for long periods of time.

Outcome: Timmy’s family will be able to develop a greater understanding of Timmy’s processing
issues, and develop more effective ways to interact with him.

Suggested Action: Uriah and Alex are to research the following websites in order to develop a
greater understanding of how to assist Timmy in daily life. They can study these to learn greater
sensory processing.

Resource Type and Name: This is a series of blogs and informational websites to assist the parents in
understanding and helping Timmy.

a. blogs
8. https://themighty.com/2015/07/for-moms-of-children-with-sensory-processing-disorder/

Rationale: These resources will help Timmy and his parents understand what might be going on with him
and help them discover strategies in helping him cope and live as typical as possible.

FORMAL SUPPORT
1st Family Concern/Priority: The family is hoping to see a greater variety in Timmy’s food palette,
and overall tolerance for different foods and textures.

Current Resource/Information: Timmy is sensitive to a range of particular food textures. He struggles to
keep down many foods. The family has tried to alternate diet and simple diet integration, but that has
not proven as effective as they have hoped.
