[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 181916, member: 1514"] Wow. Im so sorry to hear all this but you are so right. Respite is so utterly needed for all parents of special needs kids. I dont think many people realize how exhausting it is to take care of a child with a disability whether it is physical or emotional. Parents really cant just hire the teen down the street to come in once a week and watch little Johnny while they go out. I know we didnt have any help from family when my boys were growing up. None. No one would take my boys on. It was sad. I couldnt even ask my mom to watch Cory and Jamie if I was sick with the flu. [/QUOTE]
