I swear, between the school, some docs (obviously not the right ones), other parents and such.... Do you feel like you want to just crawl in a hole and never come out?
My kids have Aspergers and have lots of anxiety. They have recently been tested by a private speech place and they get mad or rather strict with my kids during the session, when I can tell my kids arn't handling things very well.
And with kids on the spectrum you as a parent know they have good days and bad. For example, I was totally stressed knowing I had to take my son to a appointment for a root canal. I stressed so bad worrying whether I could get him in the car for the appointment, get him out when we were there, get him in the chair and have the work done without a complete and total meltdown.
Holy Cow it went SO WELL! No problems at ALL! I was so relieved. And after the root canal, we had to walk next door to his regular dentist to then fill the tooth so we wouldn't have to go back in a few weeks.
I couldn't believe it went so well!!!
But then we have these days were nothing goes right. And then people think it's due to them just choosing to behave this way and then you get judged by your parenting.
I get so drained with this. Sometimes I feel the only person that understand's what it's like is our NP that does the Cog Therapy. He is the one that reminds me it's not our parenting. He is the good guy and the only one that seems to "Get it"
Sigh okay thanks for letting me vent.
