[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]OP maybe you should find a forum for parents of special needs kids[/b]. I don’t know what’s with the posters here but they don’t seem to understand a) the importance of making kids do chores and b) the difficulties of raising siblings of special needs kids. You aren’t getting a lot of great advice. [/quote] Oh please. It sounds like OP is doing fine handling her special needs kids. They get all the attention and understanding. What she’s failing at is being a mother to her daughter. This is not about doing chores. OP did not even bother to stop and have a 5 minute conversation with her daughter that unloading the dishwasher would be her job every morning. She expected to bark orders to come help her “right NOW” abd she didn’t care what she was doing or what was going in her life. The daughter gets zero understanding. And at 9 she’s able to recognize that her mom just wants her to shut up and not make waves. I agree that it’s incredibly hard to be a mom to special needs kids. What OP needs to stop doing is relying on her 9 year old daughter as a support system. She’s just a little girl. She needs a mom too. [/quote] It’s not that she needs help with her special needs kid. She needs help with the siblings of her special needs child, and I imagine she could get more advice and help with that than she is getting here. [/quote]
