[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My NT kid is the only reason why I don't hate parenting. My SN kid is nothing but hard. SOmetimes I wish he were non-verbal, in a wheelchair like the kids I see in the videos. Nobody sees how horrible he is to us. How difficult he makes everything. I have poured so much into him and he's just mean and difficult 80 % of the time. The other 20% you see that he can be nice/competent when he wants to be. So I keep putting in effort to change that percentage, to little effect. I am effing exhausted.[/quote] The flip side to this is that I feel like my other child's needs have to be out on the back burner because just the basic needs of my child with ASD are so severe and time/resource-consuming. It's been incredibly unfair to him.[/quote]
