[quote=Anonymous]My 12.5 yr old doesn't have special needs and just yesterday while sitting on her bed I looked around her room and said, "Do you need help?" and she sounded SO relieved as she said, "Yes." I don't know why she couldn't ask me to help, but she hadn't. So I spent an hour fixing her dresser drawers and pointing out things she could pick up, throw away, put on her bookcase, etc. On Wednesday she's going to do her laundry and then we've agreed I'll help her fold and put it away. Can she do this on her own? Yes. But isn't it nice to get help with what feels like a big project? Yes. I CAN clean my whole house myself. But it's NICE to have help. That's how I view helping her.
