[QUOTE="buddy, post: 465545, member: 12886"] I have found that there are many people in my boat. I have chosen to stop working outside of the home (not a total choice, kid would not be able to live at home if I didn't quit) because I get so many calls during the day and often have to go to the school for difficult child. In addition, there is no daycare that will take him. Not even the after school programs that receive public funds would work with him and I knew it would be more of the same...calls and having to leave work. I have Integrated Listening Systems (ILS) funds but waivered money can't be used for daycare and anyway, at this point now it has been 4 years and he is too old for daycare. He needs 24/7 supervision. I dont mind that at all, I signed up to be a mom, so that is ok... but the reality of life is--I need to work more. So my question is, what am I going to do? I am able to be paid as a "paid parent provider" through his ma waiver, but of course this allows me to barely support him. I have a good education but it is not an in home kind of job (I can't bring people in my home because son would never leave us alone.) I am so stressed about money all of the time. What jobs do any of you have that are flexible or at home jobs (I know there are lots of online rip off jobs so I will be careful, I mean real jobs) Any success stories? I am open to other kinds of jobs than what I have been doing for the past 25 years. But, what? [/QUOTE]
