[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 498804, member: 1550"] Man, I did not mean to sound harsh. I am a clinical thinker and sometimes I think my posts lack the heart of others. That is NOT because I don't feel even extreme pain for the person I am answering...I am just better at writing in a more clinical, cold way...so I apologize if I made you feel bad. Of course you meant the best. Of course you care what others think of your son or if he may get hurt. With Sonic, we told him things slowly, as he was old enough and communicative enough to understand. We did not tell him his birthmother used drugs until he was a teenager, but we hinted at it, always saying that she was "sick" and unable to take care of any child, not just him, but ANY child. We gave him slowly fed information that he now understands. It is harder with a spectrum child, of course it is. I'm so sorry if I sounded like a biotch. I need to soften up my responses. It's hard though when you think in a literal way. I respect and care about you very much. We have such similar children and situations. I have to apologize for my tone. Dang me!!! :/ [/QUOTE]
