[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My heart hurts for you and your child hearing this. Toughening up SN kids--or adults for that matter--to the "real world" is total BS. The "real world" is a broken patriarchy to fit the ideals of WHITE MEN. I don't know your husband's race, ethnicity, etc, but wouldn't it be nice if we could accommodate/normalize people with different sensory needs, women who just had kids, generational cycles of poverty and racism. I am a social worker and so tired of hearing this story over and over, particularly from husbands. [b]Walk on the wild side of the world not revolving around your lens and get uncomfortable thinking there could be a different norm for just two seconds. [/b]

I highly encourage you to do what you know in your bones is right for your son. By holding back this information he is going to develop and internal message that he is bad and anxiety. If you don't get him accommodations there won't be an aftercare for him sooner or later due to his behavior or him being miserable/traumatized and I can guess who will need to figure out what to do during that time or take off work to watch him... YOU!

I will step off my high horse, for now. [/quote]

PP. The bolded sentence in my last post is directed at husbands, not you. You sound lovely.[/quote]
