[quote=Anonymous]I felt this way until I realized my family member was totally fine with themselves and would have been devastated to know those thoughts went through my head. It took a lot of self-learning but I felt a responsibility to do it. The big shift for me came when I realized the SN person themselves wasn't the burden, the fact that society doesn't give them enough opportunity is the burden. Helped me truly realize that my negative emotions weren't due to him. For example, if elite schools had programs for SN kids, then parents wouldn't have to feel left out. And also, the kid would get a better education, which is what should matter most. There's ways to turn this frustration into support and it helped me feel closer to my family member. [/quote]
