[quote=Anonymous]I think the expectations you have, even if your child were NT and highly empathetic, are kind of unrealistic. Very few children express gratitude to their parents on a regular basis. I can't think of any who do. The fantasy you relate of being thanked for taking care of your child while he/she is sick is almost laughable. OP, really, this is not the way real children act. It has nothing to do with HFA. Children, real children, do not thank their parents for parenting them. Your expectations are so over the top here that they are almost beyond belief. [/quote]
