[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, we pulled together and had two more kids. Our eldest with Aspergers Syndrome is doing wonderfully (he has friends and great grades). Our youngest has a speech/language delay, but we're dealing with it and he'll be just fine.

We're more in love than ever. The key is to take it as a challenge, not a deal breaker, and to love each other through it. If you remember why you got together and had kids in the first place -- love -- then a having a child with SN won't feel like the end of the world.

Also, remember that a disability is only one aspect of that child. Every SN kid we've ever met also had amazing gifts. Get to know all aspects of your SN kid and love them all and everything will end up O.K.[/quote]

Glad things worked out for you, PP, but many parents of SN kids are not so lucky.

OP, your marriage will survive if you and your spouse work together. If you fight over the treatment of your child, you will have problems, likely insurmountable ones. [/quote]
