As the mom of a 15 yr old high functioning autistic daughter, I have been utterly in knots over what happened in Nashville (my hometown). Audrey probably had a lifetime of loneliness and inability to form meaningful friendships and relationships. Not excusing this outrageous act of violence and destruction, but I feel like I have some insight (from my daughter's struggles). Just recently had her triennial IEP and it's been tough and she is working hard. But it's been a tough road for her.

I’m so sorry that you both are going through that. Seeing our kids struggle is one of the toughest things as a parent. No easy answers there. Hopefully these horrific situations can cause us as a country to seriously work toward finding solutions to the root causes of these issues. So many kids seem to be struggling these days. It is tragic.[/quote]

Thank you so much.

And yes, if Remy is on the spectrum why on earth did Jen send her to Spain for a year?  I studied abroad in college and it's a lot.  It's great, but you really have to have your wits about you and manage your affairs and school and language.  Remy was in a family situation which may have complicated things, too.  I don't think it was a good idea AT ALL.

Slovenly kids- eh, I try to pick my battles. [/quote]
