[quote=Anonymous]I want to echo the suggestions for seeking support/therapy for yourself and assistance in learning to manage your DD's challenges. I know what burnout is like and my kids aren't nearly as challenging as others. I also know what it's like to envy and long for those days when you didn't have to deal with all the crap we've got going on. It's okay to acknowlege what you're feeling. I can't overemphasize the need for regular time for yourself. I've heard great things about Jill's House http://jillshouse.org/ from people who have actually used them. I recently contacted them to see about getting some respite time (and am hoping they're not as expensive as getting a babysitter because then it would be too expensive for us). In the meantime, recognize that there's nothing wrong with feeling the way you do, it's how you act that matters. Do the best you can.[/quote]
