WOW, who says something like that!

My story is rather complicated, includes my own issues as well as the kiddos (DS1 has SN, but DS2 has additional needs), but at the end of the day I don't know any better. We've been part of the system since I was pregnant with DS1. DS1's SN are what makes him, well him. Without his SN he just wouldn't be him. I wouldn't change anything, sure I'd like to make things easier for him, but I don't want to 'get rid' of it completely iykwim?

Some days I just manage, but overall I think I cope rather well, just like any other parent really. I don't see myself as being any different to you or anyone else. We all encounter issues, as parents, which makes things harder to deal with. It's all part of the parcel really.

My good friend's little boy has a physical disability as well as intellectual and thinks very similar to myself. We are both just glad to have our kids at all (her bub was VERY early)

I hope that helps
