[quote=Anonymous]OP, you need to talk to the social worker at your child’s school. Ask what community resources are available. Maybe you qualify for some kind of Medicaid, based on the severity of his disability? You also need an emergency appointment with your pediatrician, preferably while your dc is at school. Get the doctor to recommend some specialists. If you can’t afford a special needs nanny, get the typical child in some kind of childcare situation and max his hours away from sibling. Ask his friends’ parents to watch him for a half day in Saturday. Are you a church member? Take the typically developing child to church and drop him off at childcare all morning. Sit in the church lobby and chill on your phone or catch up on executive function tasks. I’d wait on divorce until you get your child settled. Once you have helpers come, you can take a breath and reassess your marriage. [/quote]
