[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 636181, member: 1514"] Guideme, you remind me of myself quite a bit. I have a feeling you are a few years younger than me though. I am an only child and I didnt grow up having a ton of friends. I had 2 or 3 good friends and then several who were friends of friends. Because my mother was completely crazy no one ever came over to my house to play. Never. I cant remember ever having kids to my house. I did go to a couple of my friends homes though and I stayed there quite a bit...thanks be to those parents. So because of the way I grew up I was not prepared to parent boys who wanted friends over all the time. Their dad on the other hand could have kids over 24/7 and not notice. I disliked when all the friends came over. I wanted to hide. Remember we share a diagnosis right? So here I am wanting to hide and all these friends are coming in and out of the house calling me "Ma"!!!!!!! I think half of the kids in our area called me Ma. I still turn around if I hear that name...lol. My kids dont call me that...Im mom or Momma. Personally, I would have preferred it if they never spoke to me at all! [/QUOTE]
