[quote=Anonymous]Really the bottom line is that parents of SN kids are individuals with unique likes and dislikes, just like all other parents. Some of us are introverted, some not, some are assholes, some are fun, some will get annoyed if you ask what's up with their kid, some won't, etc etc.

My question is: why do you want to talk to this woman in the first place? Would you be interested in being her friend if she didn't have a SN kid? Is there something about HER specifically, not related to her kid, that makes you think you might hit it off? If she just seems like a cool woman you want to hang with, talk to her like you would any other typical mom with typical kids. If you are just feeling sorry for her because you think her life must suck and you are going to do her the grand favor of paying her some attention, eh....maybe you should stay away.

If you do approach her, she may not care to speak to you and ignore you, or you may end up BFF....who knows. That's the risk you run when reaching out to anyone. [/quote]
