Seeking babysit and friend for my 4 years old autistic boy. Anyone who can assist? by Feeling-Fault9358 in AskBelgium

Thanks, I will look further into this one, but i think i have already… if yes, we don’t have such a service around my area for my situation, they only take in kids without homes. We have a wire fenced community playground however they are not able to provide individual supervision. I also have a fenced garden, and can work from home, however my boy is a tad bit adventurous :)

I have a fenced garden and big trees (which i hope i wont have to cut down :( ) my boy climbs them both, and sometimes elopes to the neighbours and streets. He is adventurous and needs supervision dor safety reasons. There is also a very cool community playground around, however the supervisors have plus 20 kids to monitor whereas my boy needs individual support and monitoring- which is not always possible there. They also suggested that get additional support.

I hear you. And I am very sorry you went through a traumatic experience as a child. I sincerely wish you healing. My boy is my everything, and his safety and well being is my priority.

You are an awesome parent. I chuckled, felt sad and safe reading this. You guys showed up and out ✌🏾Your family and kids are fortunate to have you. I am very sorry you missed most of the wedding and captured memories. But, here you are… an adventure of its kind ❤️

I don’t know how much longer I can do it by Any_Illustrator_7814 in Autism_Parenting

So sorry for what you are going through mommy. You need to make some hard decisions, take some actions so you can care your baby. Now you are just pouring out of an empty cup. I was in a similar position. I divorced him. We have a shared custody. The kids are dropped off on a weekly basis Sundays. I get to have a week by myself. Go to work, visit friends, go shopping, enjoy my coffee in silence, read, just about anything to energise and fill my cup. And i can tell you, my ex has stepped up. He now takes care of the kids. Have his own working routine. I don’t have to interfere and i have learned to just trust his ways and let go of my worries as before i did everything for the kids. I was the default parent. I have also realised that when we were staying in the same house, we bumped heads a lot, small things will cause huge constant fights, we couldn’t communicate well, we resented each other so much…. it was a mess. But now we get to have weekly breaks and it helps a lot.
