[quote=Anonymous]It’s hard OP. My child was diagnosed on the later side, so it felt harder somehow (it probably feels the same for most parents going through the diagnosis process). I posted here for support and was told the exact same thing doctors and teachers had been telling me for years - “it must be your parenting because your child only struggles at your house”. Since then we’ve found so many people with kids who have SN, and sometimes in really unexpected ways. Once at a basketball game my child had a major meltdown and another parent gathered our things for us and brought them to us while we managed the situation, and told us that her children had similar struggles and that we should get coffee sometime. I cried after I got home because no one had ever seen a meltdown of my child’s and been so compassionate and nonjudgmental before that. I try to remember that moment when I see parents struggling, and I try to be that person if I’m able to. [/quote]
