[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 20195, member: 1697"] my sister railed at me for being a smoker. SHe stood in front of me and my kids and said I could not possibly love my children becuz I am a smoker. a year later she stopped nursing her first born at 3 weeks becuz she wanted to have margaritas with her neighbors again for brunch during coffee clutch. And she goes to tanning beds. (my best friend died from melanoma) Same sister railed at me for having the audacity to not be a stay at home mom.....and for having children that in her opinion I could not afford. I was not a stay at home mom becuz my husband got very ill and our private disability insurance coverage company went bankrupt just as we filed the claim. Yet SHE left her children repeatedly with my mom who had lung and brain cancer and RA and mom could not pick the children up (they were infants) and she lied to mom, brought them to "visit" and then went out of town. Was gone days at a time. If I had a penny for every person who would tell me "you know there are medications for children who behave that way" or a nichel for everytime a person said to me "you know the school can't do that with your child, there is IDEA laws" I could retire to an island and buy a private jet. Yes I KNOW there are medications, gosh do you care to sit down while I name every single one and tell you the doseing amounts the expected therapuetic effect, the price per 100 pills and what OUR outcome was from each medication? Gee, gosh, what section of IDEA do you want me to recite for you, do you wanna see the due process transcripts, the school records, the advocates paperwork, the testimony of the school personne, the docs reports and recommendations, see the bazillion IEPS? medications work for some...and some people have dangerous adverse reactions. SOme illness have cases of medication resistant problems. and laws are only as good as the enforcement of the laws. I am doing the very best I can, thank you very much. Are you implying I am inadequete and incompetant? Ah, but.....really......some people really truly only do mean well. Some people really do want to help----and they feel so helpless. Some of them DO hurt for us and how hard this life is. There might not be many things worse than not being able to help someone you love with some difficult hard part of their life. - so sometimes they do keep trying. [/QUOTE]
