[quote=Anonymous]So burnt out. My son just turned five, and his functional level is more like a nonverbal 3-year-old. So he needs constant supervision, and he tantrums and throws stuff when he doesn't get his way, and we're still working on potty-training. Meanwhile, my 9-year-old whines, pouts and feels neglected because her brother has to be the center of things so often. School with her is its own kind of drama. (She has mild ADHD and has been on an IEP since first grade. She's doing much better and only needs support in math now -- but it's still a process.) I try to remember everybody has their own shit to deal with and life isn't fair. But sometimes having a SN kid seems EXTRA unfair. [/quote]
