[quote=Anonymous]I have a degree and special special needs teaching experience. I am currently working with infants, but have worked for special needs parents before, mostly speech issues, ADD/ADHD, and Autism spectrum. The last job I had of this nature was for the care and tutoring of three adopted siblings, all very close in age. This job lasted for about 6 months, until it became very clear that the parents had no real interest in modifying bad behavior (lots of kicking, screaming, and the occasional biting) and I just got fed up. 
All of the children did incredibly well that term in school however, and I sometimes wish I had stayed....I was not compensated fairly whatsoever ($15/hour for 3 special needs children with violent tendencies) but that wasn't why I took the job and I understood that they had a whole team of people they had to pay. I genuinely love the difference that I can make in families, and the lives of these kids. There's something very special about helping a child exceed his own expectations of himself. [/quote]
