[QUOTE="buddy, post: 574079, member: 12886"] Gentle hugs, it is ok to be sad for them and for you sometimes. There are people out there who really get it. I met friends in adapted sports programs thru community education. They are soccer or baseball programs (etc.) that are for kids with any kind of social issue or special need....there was even adapted art classes. From there I could go with them as friends and not worry if q couldn't handle things well. It is not a parenting experience like my parents or sisters have but q is never gonna get busted having a party when I'm gone for a business trip so some typical issues I get a pass on! The gift in this? When things go well, when they make the smallest success or say a funny thing it is such a sweet victory. Nothing compares to that high. That's why we often all get choked up here when we hear about the better days. Typical parents have proud parent days but what we feel, almost doesn't have a word to describe it. Be kind to yourself and try to find something to laugh about each day if you can.......we are here for you! [/QUOTE]
