[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there a reason why you need to go out to eat at dinner time a couple times a month?

Go to brunch instead. Or get take out. [/quote]

Not the OP here-but our families, that include a person with special needs, are allowed to eat out. [/quote]

Ridiculous take. Of course you are "allowed" but if it's not enjoyable for everyone you do not have to. Most of us with sn kids have been in this situation where we wanted to have a particular familu scenario but reality is different. Taking a pause on eating out because it causes stress is OK. Many of us are chiming in to say we did that and it got better with time. Many are sharing regrets at using the ipad to force something that wasnt right for the family.

If a 7 year old cannot function in a casual family eatery, do not take him. Take the youngest on their own. Get take out. Eat at counter order places. Pack a picnic somewhere. There are other options. Being a parent is understanding you have to pivot sometimes.[/quote]

No, it's not a 'ridiculous take'. [/quote]
