[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 108722, member: 3388"] Janna, I feel just like you and Marg when it comes to feeling like you're "standing in an empty room screaming for help and nobody gives a :censored:." I have to update my sig soon. difficult child 2 has recently been diagnosed with Asperger's. Even though, as Sheila has pointed out, the SD is supposed to provide difficult child 2 with everything he needs to have the best chance of being successful in life, everything is a major BATTLE. Most of the time, I feel exhausted, angry and totally drained. I don't have the money to hire an advocate or an attorney right now. I had a wonderful woman helping me with difficult child 2's IEP (services were free through a non profit group)but she has just left the agency. She has a difficult child of her own and I think it was just too much dealing with her difficult child's issues as well as the issues of so many others' difficult children too. I don't blame her. Anyway, it is definitely a long, hard fight to get anything at all. My SD expects me to be thankful for any crumbs they throw my way.
