[quote=Anonymous]I have 2 children with ASD. For years, I taught full time-- sometimes at one of my dc's schools. That was helpful in some ways-- I was nearby if my dc needed me, or got in trouble. I was able to get to know their teachers and sometimes stop problems before they started. It was really hard in other ways. Both of my dc have been asked to leave (different) schools. :cry: This year, they did pretty well at school (knock wood). I think part of the reason is that I have been working very part time. They didn't go to early or aftercare this year. I chaperoned field trips. I was home to keep homework on track. They don't have to be in day camp this summer, because I'm scheduling my work around them. We don't have any money, but I don't have to worry about them being kicked out of camp. It's a trade off I can live with, for now. God help me if we have a financial crisis. [/quote]
