[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, we have a child in a self-contained ED class--I have walked miles in your shoes. I 100% agree with pp about babysitting. For us getting out of the house and away from the problems is cheaper and more effective than anything else. The grind is endless--you deserve a break. [/quote] Thanks for the two PP who suggested this. I will look for an additional sitter. I just hired one for friday nights but I think more mid-week and/or weekend breaks are needed[/quote] Yes to weekend sitter - make it for the *daytime.*. I find that a good break to myself during the day, especially if it involves outdoor activity, does more for me mentally then just about any other break. And better than nighttime sitters, because those just compromise my sleep.[/quote]
