[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks, all. You have me tearing up over here, seriously. One of my boys has nonverbal autism (and bad asthma) & special dietary needs (can’t chew, allergies) so there is extra meal prep. He’s doing teletherapies for private therapy right now, but I am now his one on one for schoolwork... which isn’t going well. His SPED & gen ed classes are also doing zoom chats. My other elementary child also needs some help with his assignments. And my littlest just has a way of getting into all.the.things. My autistic son has been in full time school since the day he turned 3... so we’re struggling big time with the routine changes.[b] We cannot go for walks without DH (with a runner)[/b] so it’s inside the house or the backyard. It’s just a lot. A whole lot. On top of being really worried about everything else going on. I did talk with DH after he got upset about me venting to a fellow special needs mom, and he is stressed about his job and said he’s doing his best. I take food up to him because he’s mostly on conference calls, he only leaves our room to go to the bathroom. I am hoping we get into a better groove soon. [/quote]

Of course you can. You are choosing not to. Get a backpack leash.[/quote]

You can give a suggestion without being snotty.  She is the mom of a special needs kid with non verbal autism who is clearly elementary school age.  You could have said - "Would one of the backpack leashes be an option?" instead of acting like she is choosing to not help herself.  BE NICE PEOPLE. It isn't hard. [/quote]
