I love the posts where someone is overwhelmed and exhausted and the reply posts are ridiculing and deeming. Would it be better if those feelings were kept inside and taken out on the child? I must be such a horrible person to be able to take time out and make a post rather then lash out at my son. I must be such a horrible person that I don't try to blame this all on GOD or put on a smiling face everyday when I'm overwhelmed. I must be such a horrible person that I'm human and can recognize my limits. I love the parents who claim they have no problems handling their autistic children and judge others who may have difficulties. Thank you all who post such ridiculous comments to those who need support. Thank you for wasting my time rather then helping. It really shows what loving and caring people some of you really are. ↓

| Please don't say you are a horrible person. We are all here to help and support each other. This disorder can be very trying, not to mention raising a child period. Sometimes we all say and do things that we don't really mean. We are all human. Please seek support elsewhere, if not here. You deserve just as much attention as we all do. You are part of a very important childs life. ↑ |

| Want to talk? I dare someone to convince me that I am not the only person in this world dealing with the daily stress. My son suffers, probably, for sure, more than me. I feel sorry for other children and parents dealing with other situations like cancer, physical & medical illness or disfigurement. But the point is that they deal with completely different issues, not more or less that autistic children or parents of. F*#K society. Society doesn't have anything on autistic children or their parents. It is hard being a parent of an autistic child and everyday I am challenged. Everyday I feel like quitting. Dare to talk? Dare to compare? Dare to offer help or advice? Only childrens' lives are at stake. ↑ |

| hi, disappointed, please visit my website [www.mannapages.com/jenniesgiftoflife] and also go to www. glycoscience.com both will tell you a lot about a product which I recommend to parents of autistic, aspergers, or adhd for their kids of any ages,& whatever effects these things have on them. I have had such excellent reprots from people who have stuck with the regime for 6 months, some only took 3, and in 1 cae it was 9 but there was ALWAYS huge improvement. Yes, it does cost about $7 per day at first, but i can show you how to lessen this, and at first, most people will go without a couple of magazines & takeaway food to compensate. If I can help you please ring me. [[email protected]] 0755282974 9am-5pm ↑ |

| You are not horrible. :) I have really good days where everything seems okay...and then really really bad days where i'm heart broken that my sons future won't be what i thought it would be. We all have days where we can see the silver lining and days where we don't give a s*** about the silver lining. Good luck to you!! ↑ |

| I am sorry that you are upset with the other parents. I too am overwhelmed, two of my five children are autistic and the other children also have special needs. I have a hard time dealing with the constant pressure from society to be this perfect person when none of the other mothers I encounter daily are dealing with the same situation as me. There will always be people who judge others unfortunately and there will always be parents who think they are better then everyone else. There will always be parents who compare their children to yours and make you feel horrible that your child is not developing as well as theirs. For example there is no bedtime in my house. I have found that I cannot handle putting five young children to bed all at the same time. Instead my children go to sleep when they go to sleep and wake up when they wake up. Alot of other mothers have riducules me for this and so has my family but I just look at the source. I hope you can find someone who is supportive of you and you can share your feelings with. Feel free to write anytime and I will share my stories of being exhausted and overwhelmes. Sincerely, [email protected] ↑ |

| Yes, I feel for you. I too am really frustrated with my 4yr autistic daughter. I know most of it isn't her fault, but I am human. You are too. It is really important for you to have time to yourself. Get hubby, boyfirend, mom to give you time off. My daughter is in early intervention, THANK YOU GOD, so I get some time away. I am going back to work 2 days per week, for extra $ and also a mental break. Bad mom? A mentally healthy mom is a good mom! ↑ |
