[QUOTE="allhaileris, post: 541287, member: 5663"] I would assume his boss knows that as soon as a parent gets on the phone it's almost guaranteed the child will need attention or do something to interrupt call. And why not tell his boss? It's not like he has lice or something icky, he has something that will affect him forever, his boss should know that he has a high needs child. The only people who would be upset by that are people I who are so wound up that I would never want to work for them! I think you need not worry about it, it's totally normal for a neurotypical kid to do the same thing, maybe just not the swearing part. Get a lock for the door, tell husband to go outside or into the car where he can lock the door. And I do see you're from South Africa, I get the cultural differences. My step-mom is from SA and she's very proper, almost too much (but she also did the boarding school route). I could totally see her getting embarrassed by that situation. But in the end, as the parent, we just have to suck it up and move on. You didn't make your child do that, and it's not a reflection of your parenting. Kids come before jobs, and bosses should know that. I'm grateful mine does. [/QUOTE]
