[quote=Anonymous]Go to a therapist or parent group. It will help a lot. Ask your school social worker if there is any respite available so your child spends a weekend away and you get a break. Look for a summer sleepaway camp for your kid that handle him or her. The school may have a special needs list and ideas for paying for it. School social workers have resources that you might not know about. I’m sorry that you have this going on. Reach out to your community mental health services team for ideas. Can you hire a college grad student to take your kid out so you get a break? There are college students majoring in special education or psychology who do this in some areas. [/quote]
