[quote=Anonymous]I've had a job like yours OP, except my charge's diagnosis was on the Autism Spectrum. I also have a background in Social Work and have worked with many children with special and additional needs. After an initial getting to know me period my charge was very well behaved with me, but things changed as soon as mom walked through the door. He would often threaten to bang his head or bite his hand to get his mom to do or more commonly give him what he wanted. I stayed for a year, but I'll be honest and tell you it was one of the hardest years of my life. I just found it really difficult to work so hard on things but see no changes at home with mom simply because she didn't want to put in the effort and always took the easy way. My charge was older than yours though and he was often physically aggressive when he got mad, so it was a very taxing position both mentally and physically. Best of luck. I hope it works out for you![/quote]
