husband, myself, kt along with her PCA went to tour a new respite facility yesterday afternoon. While kt & PCA went out to check out the yard & nearby park husband & I dealt with the SW intake.
by the way, it's a beautiful respite home with staff onsite. Having said that, as we were "explaining" kt & her many antics & such I believe that SW was becoming a bit scared.
Her comment was "this is a very complex child & situation". I replied "you have a CADI license through the state to provide respite; do you think you're going to have sweet & gentle clients? This program isn't for the faint of heart. If we were just dealing with a hyperactive kid (no insult intended) do you think we'd be given respite? If it wasn't complex, do you think we'd have all these services, psychiatrist, therapist, & other interventions in place? "
I wasn't livid, just tired of hearing how complex our ktbug & her twin are....how difficult our situation is. Dah! :hammer:
