[quote=Anonymous]I think the common theme is that families have made tremendous sacrifices to care for our ASD children. I was laid off then "hired" back as a consultant by my company. This allowed me to negotiate for part-time work, for less pay of course. I also work from home as a writer for a corporate communications department so my work tends to be something I can do from home. I love working most days bc I have the flexibility to step out for appointments for my child. But honestly, work is the easiest part of my life these days! Dealing with my son's needs and fighting for his rights with the school system is way more stressful. If I could afford to, despite loving my job, I would probably quit at this point bc the stress some days is overwhelming. [/quote]
