Financial Struggles Plague Families Of Children With Autism

ScienceDaily (Feb. 29, 2008) — The information that a child has been diagnosed with autism often throws parents into an emotional tailspin. A new study from a University of Missouri researcher says most people don't immediately consider the major financial struggles that follow. She suggests more outreach is needed to help families plan and cope with the profound financial life changes they may face.

I cannot believe it takes a study to do this. The least the Govt. can do is give us tax break and not say that you have to spend 7.5% of your income. Here in CA you have to decent income otherwise it just plain hard to live.
