[quote=Anonymous]PP here. I have three kids, two with SN. ADHD, significant LDs, problems with working memory and exec functioning. Some of their issues are subtle, some are right out there. But they are bright, attractive, and we are a social family, so my friends with NT kids just don't understand the amount of work and patience it takes just to get them dressed in the morning. Or fed (serious sensory issues), or bathed. "Your kids are so bright, and they seem totally fine, why do they need an IEP/Meds/therapy/etc". People just DON'T UNDERSTAND the amount of work that it takes to manage our family life. There are days that I just want to cry. And days that I do. But mostly I try to stay positive and remember their gifts and the love they freely share within our family.[/quote]
