[quote=Anonymous]All the choices are hard IMO. I have 3 dc and one of them has ASD and also has a mood disorder. He has been in and out of school for the past few years, and no summer camp we can afford will take him. I would love to go back to work. I go days without talking to any adults except about my son's issues. But I don't see how I can have any kind of regular employment when I can never be sure he is reliably somewhere for 8+ hours a day without being called to come pick him up. My DH keeps talking about me going back to work when my youngest is in K and it makes me want to scream. He is convinced it will be easy to find something flexible, during school hours, with summer and holidays off and no problems with me taking off to deal with a school meltdown or go to a (very frequent) school meeting or stay home if any of the 3 are sick (after me not working for 8 years!). Ugh. I am just so frustrated.[/quote]
