[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 627665, member: 17542"] Very well said, Cedar. That flash of hatred. And they don't know the good parts about our difficult children. I have felt the same way with many people. And then I isolate myself from them, and the relationship withers, and it's all because I couldn't stop talking about it. It's really on me. People are going to talk about things difficult children do because they are usually way out there on the spectrum, it's a juicy story and it makes them feel better about themselves and their kids. Well, at least MY KID hasn't done.... They will hear stuff without our telling them. They will gossip behind our backs and we will have to be more cautious when we see people out, wondering what they know. It's awful. I think it makes us more compassionate and more tolerant because we've been there. That's the silver lining here. But we are already in enough pain aren't we? Gosh, for there to be even more because people are thoughtless and careless is simply another injury on top of injury. [/QUOTE]
