[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is raising a child with autism really this hard?

I mean I’ve obviously heard it is very difficult but I’ve never heard of someone giving their kid away because of it.[/quote]

Many families who have children with severe autism have them in residential care. [/quote]

Untrue. There is a tiny percentage of kids in residential care. They have to qualify for medicaid and impossible to care for at home. That is almost never a 4 year old. It is mostly big strong teenagers who can no longer be safely contained at home.[/quote]

There really aren't many places in the entire country for children 8 and under. I have seen some incredibly violent 4 year olds in my classroom and there is nowhere for them to go and not much help available to them. It's heartbreaking.[/quote]

Yes, there are but she could have gotten more supports in the home.  Our insurance approved us for 40 hours a week of ABA, plus OT and ST.  There are options out there.  Thankfully we didn't need close to it but there is help to most depending on your insurance.  Plus, the school system.    She didn't put the effort into it.[/quote]

Have kids been getting services during this Coronavirus stuff?  [/quote]
