[quote=Anonymous]I outsourced a ton of stuff. And it was well worth it. In the end, my child wasn’t going to have marked improvements and will need 24/7 attention. In our case, money will be more meaningful than time. That said, my kid had major regression and now has profound intellectual disability plus ASD. I could not have known this until about age 7 or 8. The nice thing has been that I’ve moved into the C suite as my neurotypical kid turned 10. I can actually ease off a bit on hours working in order to spend major amounts of time with her. I actually think the time I have with her now is more valuable than the time I missed when she was 3-7 and I was working my way up the ladder. But, I’m also a mom that is probably more “paternal” than “maternal” in some ways. I don’t long for time with babies, I don’t care about elf on the shelf or other Pinteresty things. Even if I had all the time in the world, I would not enjoy many traditionally homemaker type activities.[/quote]
