[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry OP, that all sounds overwhelming. It's clear you're doing your best and that you love your kids. You should give yourself a break. Also, while I obviously can't speak of the mom who has reach out to you, and it's possible she wants to do exactly what you suspect and lecture you about one of your kids, I also want to share this: I am a mom of a "sweet girl" who also has special needs and can, when dysregulated, do some very non sweet things. My kid is sweet and also my kid is sometimes the problem. And that's probably true of this woman's kid too, whether she realizes it or not. Even neurotypical kids struggle sometimes. Whatever it is she wants to say to you, just remember that her kid isn't just some picture of obedience, there's more to her, and this mom is not the perfect mom, she's struggling too in her own way. Don't turn them into a caricature if you can help it. [/quote]
