[QUOTE="tycjcj, post: 126357, member: 4687"] I feel what you're feeling but you have to be strong! I posted "Invisible Mothers". Would you please read it? I find it very comforting when I am feeling down. My life is far from perfect as I have my days too when I feel there is no one to turn to and i don't know what to do. Tears fall from my eyes too as I try to smile through the pain but then i find the strength to stand again. I often wonder if there is anyone in my small hometown that understands what it is like to raise a special needs child. i can't take a bubble bath because there is someone knocking on the bathroom door saying _________hit me or _______won't give me my book back or _______stole my car or something! I can't talk to a friend on the phone because _____will come and tell me to get off the phone or you're always on the phone you don't care about me or I'm hungry or why didn't you buy me this or that or I want to go get a game or something. Can't sit down to watch a movie because it isn't what he wants to watch so he makes it impossible for me to see it by yelling or arguing and throwing a temper tantrum through it all because I didn't choose to change the channel. Heaven forbid I not let him listen to the music he wants to listen to in the car because the sky falls and hits hiim on the head! But through it all I remember that it is all worthwhile. We are building cathedrals! The work of our busy hands that no one else sees is a masterpiece in someone's eyes! Our children love us more than we know they just don't know how to express that love. hang in there and be the best mother you can be, afterall you're the only mother your children willl ever have. be an example for them to follow.
