3 holes now.....


My dd showed up, as my son was kicking the wall over and over (I do think stimming) and since my dd doesn't understand this disorder much, started yelling at chris, telling him how he is supposed to treat me ect.....which made it worse.


She left yelling, and me feeling bad and totally incompitent....


Nic also had a issue earlier today to where I suspected that the risperadal has started to fail him.....

((((HUGS!!))))


Oh hon I soooo know how you feel with the "why can't MY kid be normal?" thing! Dakota is only 5 and he makes me feel like a complete idiot sometimes. I often wonder "am I doing something to make him worse?" I guess that feeling comes with the whole ASD territory. Like today...my mom kept my kids for a couple hours so I could go to school and take a test. There is a burger joint near her house that we HAVE to pass going to and from her house called "Sonic". Dakota LOVES Sonic...well....he wanted to go there tonite and I said "no" cuz I already had dinner on. This child screamed bloody murder all the way home! He was kicking my seat, throwing anything he could reach from his booster seat, and hitting his sister in the seat next to him. This was for 9 MILES...ugh! I was about in tears by the time we got home. So i TOTALLY get what you are saying. But ya know, there is a silver lining here. And I have to constantly remind myself of it. It is this: God picked YOU to be THIS child's mother...why?...because he KNOWS that you can handle whatever he does and love him unconditionally despite it! AND....we, as mothers of ASD kids, should feel priviledged and special that God felt us worthy and competent to do the task. No other person can love your child the way that YOU do. No other person can understand YOUR child the way YOU do. And ya know what else? (this is the best part) your child KNOWS that you love him/her EXACTLY how they are and they love you right back for EXACTLY how you are!!! I don't know what goes on all the time in Dakota's head. I wish I did. I wish he understood enough to tell me when he is upset about something and why. He has never said the words "I'm mad" or "I'm happy" or "I'm sad". There's one thing you can be thankful for hon...your boys can tell you when
