[quote=Anonymous][quote]How do I explain to my well meaning friends and family that their questions are annoying and that, after dealing with this stuff all day I don't want to keep talking about it? How do I handle the fact that everyone in the peanut gallery of my kid's life has some theory or suspicion about his "problems?" [/quote] Tell your family and friends that while you appreciate their concern, but it is stressing you out for them to keep asking, and you will get back to them when you have information that you are ready to share. For those in the peanut gallery, "Well, that's one theory, but we are going to rely on his physicians' opinions." The best thing to do is deflect and not engage.[/quote]
