[QUOTE="Shari, post: 156233, member: 1848"] Ok, I totally understand that you can't leave her with a sitter...however...I hired high school seniors or college kids intending to go into Special Education to go places with me and difficult child. And they weren't sitters, they were "big buddies". I was right there, but they interacted and dealt with difficult child while I tended to whatever other thing it was that I was doing. It worked well for us. The high school guidance counselor got us the high school kids. After they left for college, most kept in touch enough that I was able to get contacts from them. Even at my dad's funeral, 3 hours from home, I called up a girl who knew some locals and told them what I needed and she delivered to me a college senior 3 months from graduating with a degree in spec education. She chased my difficult child around the funeral home for hours. Without her, I don't know what that event would have been like. A worse kind of he!!, tho, I'm sure. [/QUOTE]
