Hello everyone, this thread is dedicated to discussing both the challenges and victories we face as parents raising children with additional needs.
Whether you're facing a difficult phase or want to share a proud parenting moment, this is the place to find support, encouragement and understanding from others who get it.
I'll go first! One of my biggest challenges lately has been managing my own expectations and feelings of guilt when my child has a meltdown in public. It's easy to feel defeated and wonder if I'm doing something wrong. But then, seeing them laugh and play joyfully reminds me that the tough moments are just temporary blips in an otherwise wonderful parenting journey.
What about you? What are some of your current challenges or recent victories?
