We may not know about your child, you might have no idea whats wrong with ours. What we have in common is that we understand the sacrifices, the commitment, the despair and the endless banging of heads on the doors that are supposed to be supporting us. We understand the guilt, the anger the frustrations that you feel. We understand that tired feeling when you just want to close the door and walk away for a little while. We understand that a little thing like a child's smile can be more reward that a blank cheque we also know how lonely living with a special needs child can be and how isolating. Don't be shy.......Come and say hi! http://www.parentssidebyside.com My children have special needs and some days life with them can be extremely difficult but since joining Parents Side by Side I've found that I don't have to go through the hard days alone. All of the parents on the site have their own difficulties yet they're never too busy to offer help and support to each other. I won't say that being a member of Parents Side by Side has changed my life, it just helps to make the bad days more bearable. |
