[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry, OP. I know it hurts. My oldest was born premature and has ADHD/ASD and learning disabilities, so I had all his childhood to understand what he might be capable of. Indeed, he surprised us - by dint of hard work and our entire family's commitment to his success, he went to a decent college. T50. I don't think we could have expected more! My second is gifted, with a high IQ, but has a serious medical condition that will worsen with age. We are not pushing her, because stress triggers flares that hasten the progression of her disease. I don't know where she will land. All I want is that she stay healthy enough to be financially independent. Same as my oldest, really, but for physical, not psychiatric, reasons. We both need to work on acceptance, OP. Be grateful for what your family has. [/quote] Beautifully said.[/quote]
