[quote=Anonymous]OP, I feel for you. I worked for one of the Big4 companies and then boom, we got the ASD diagnosis. Within a few months I realized that my company would not accommodate me, they still wanted me to travel like crazy, no flexible schedule at all. So I joined a small women owned company. Sure I took a paycut, but I am no longer traveling, I have a strict 9-5 schedule despite being on the customer site most of the time. Company owners were extremely understanding, one of them has 2 SN children. While DS was attending FCPS preschool, we had a nanny to pick him from school, drive him to ABA, OT, SLP. He's now finishing 2nd grade, we have a nanny who now takes him to activities. Yes, nannies are expensive, we pay $20/hour but I come home to a happy, non-stressed child, who are thriving. [/quote]
