[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 574216, member: 6546"] And I think the hurt, if we get down to it....is not [I]really[/I] about success, or IQ, or some kind of achievement... The hurt is that we didn't we get to share in those experiences. We didn't get to do all those think we think of as 'typical childhood' with our children. The endless practicing for a recital and then the "big show"....finally scoring a point for the team...having their name called at the awards ceremony...earning the badge...mastering a skill...memorizing their lines... and then the social things - first sleepover, first birthday party, first dance, first date, first kiss... So many things that difficult children and their parents miss out on. :-( [/QUOTE]
