[quote=Anonymous]Your examples kind of sound like a typical kid. I mean, none of mine ever put on sunscreen at camp. And, one of mine took way past 10 to tie shoes - always had their own way and still can't do a typical bow. Also I don't get what you're expecting regarding puberty. I'm sure there's more. All I can say is this. As a special needs parent, all we can do is try to give our kids the skills they need to be as successful as possible as an adult. Accepting that they might not become independent or might not become a high functioning independent person is tough. But, no matter how hard we work at it, not all of us will have highly functioning or even independent kids. We still have to keep working at it but for some of us, it's really discouraging and we can't fix it. [/quote]
