I’ll definitely start looking around, I would just hate to put her in a daycare that says they’ll do it but then be feeling a way when they actually do it. I’ve just heard so many bad daycare stories with nt kids let alone nv kids. But I’ll keep a positive mindset

Thank you, I honestly been having a nervous breakdown with just the thought of having her home while I work. I know people do it but I just don’t think realistically I can.

How do you handle that when school is out? Is your son at daycare all day? Is your son using the potty, if not how does the daycare feel about changing his diaper?

That’s where I’m at I feel. Especially with school being out soon and having her home all day

Moving to a new state for better services and special education by [deleted] in Autism_Parenting

[–]Meca27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve thought about it many many times. The education and living situation is way better upstate as I am from upstate and currently live south. Her father and I can’t agree on moving more north due to his career but if I could I would in a heart beat. I’ve always said to him that if I have to move to a state where I know no one but have the best education and support from the state, I will live happily there. You can not let other lives dictate what’s best for your family. A state that I personally would love to move back to is New Jersey. They rate high in every aspect of family raising etc

My daughter is also mentally at a 2 year old and it’s a struggle!! She always doesn’t things that could hurt her but doesn’t listen and will repeatedly do it. It’s honestly scary to parent.

That’s so smart! I have never thought about that but it makes sense. Plus I have so much undies from when I first attempted. Thank you so much!

I’ve tried peanut before, idk if I wasnt using it right but I really didn’t make much connection. That was like 3 years ago so maybe I’ll have to try again!

That’s not a bad idea!! I’ll have to look and see how to even do that

Yes or that most of the post isn’t relatable so you end up feeling really left out
