[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, you have no idea what it's like to parent multiple young kids with special needs.  It's incredibly hard.

It's very seldom better for them to be put in the care of foster parents who will show them even less empathy and understanding.

I agree with others who have posted that the best thing you can do is take them one on one and try to build relationships with them.

It completely and utterly normal for a parent of kids that age to have to take a break from a phone call to handle situations.  If you are even the slightest bit alarmed or surprised by this then you are clearly not one to judge.

So, again, as an aunt to these children, try to be a solid adult presence in their lives.  Build relationships with them.  Pay for camps you think would be helpful.  Maybe even take a class on how to parent kids of this age with these disabilities so that you can find a way to have more knowledge and compassion.  Because you're clearly lacking in both right now.[/quote]

Things can be hard.  That however does not give you the right to act abusive. If it’s hard, get help.   Look into resources.   Or, how about plan for parenthood—which includes what would be our plan if a kid has SN.  And don’t tell me tge parents aren’t aware.  F they can look up whatever their cult leader is saying.  It’s a choice [/quote]
