[quote=Anonymous]Thank you pp. I'm a SAHM with 2 kids one who is hfa, he's almost 14 and doing great. Sometimes I wish that I could go to work and have a career. My only outlet now is going to the gym in the mornings after I drop off my kids to school. I really would like to find some ty of hobby or something. I tried taking a drawing class, but that did not work out. My husband has a government job, we are not rich, but we manage to live a simple modest life with one vacation a year. But you are right pp, it is stressful raising a special needs child, and if doable one parent should make the kids the top priority. My husband has told me many times how much he appreciates all of the work that I have done and if it was not for me, my son would not have been able to be as successful as he is today. I'm still looking for that hobby or something that I can do from home. My son will be going to high school in the fall and my son has been receiving. services since he was a toddler. Time goes by quickly, to the OP, if you can find something part time that you enjoy, go for it. If not now, then don't worry about now. All the best to you OP, I'm sure you will be fine. [/quote]
