[quote=Anonymous]One of the toughest things about having a kid with special needs is letting go of the kid that you wanted and accepting the kid in front of you. It's hard. Every parent has to do it, but when your kid has a disability that makes them rude or insensitive or violent, it's even harder. It's an on-going experience as kids get older and the reality of their adult lives are not what you imagined when you got pregnant. It;s hard on the kids are they realize that they aren't everything their parents expected them to be. It's painful and coming to peace with it can be difficult. Welcome to Holland applies to adult kids as well as newly diagnosed kids. https://www.emilyperlkingsley.com/welcome-to-holland[/quote]
