I don't post as much as some of you, but I visit daily. Reading about you're experiences, struggles, and successes has been incredibly enlightening. Having a child that is outside the norm can be so isolating, and although I still often feel alone, I can come here and be alone together with you. Happy Thanksgiving!

It's great to be able to talk openly about things the kids do, say etc and not worry about the snarky comments and backlash. Such awesome advice and interaction always too Mom to 3 gorgeous boys: Aiden (8), Nathan (7) and Dylan (4)

A special thank you to everyone who has been helping me with start-up of my school. You folks are incredibly generous with your insights and time, and any success I have will be in large part thanks to you!! What is to give light must endure burning.
