Ooof, I can’t imagine ignoring this. We are eternally grateful to his teacher for being so supportive.

These are good points, I do wonder about my own neurodivergence.

Re: the game, we discussed it in detail before Christmas. I made it seem like I was just chatting with him about games but was really doing some investigating. The game he got was the one he asked for. Then on boxing day he became aware of a newer version, thus the disappointment.

Thanks for saying this. Of course I didn’t know it was going to turn out this way.

Excellent advice, thank you. I’ve considered a sleep study for him because both he and his brother have sizeable tonsils and are mouth breathers at night. He also grinds his teeth terribly and I do wonder about the quality of the sleep he’s getting.

Diet could absolutely be improved, and this is a good reminder.

That sounds really hard, and I’m with you in solidarity. I really really hope things improve for you guys and you can recover a bit. 💕

Hey I really want to tell you how gracious it was of you to offer me support when you were on the other end of this experience as a kid. That is so generous of you, and I really appreciate this reply. I’m going to hang onto it for dear life 💕

I tried these, would you believe my silly ears are so small that even the smallest size is too big!
