Does anyone else have children with special needs.I am struggling with mine.My youngest cant use a toilet when their at the age they should be.I am getting tired of changing them,does that make me a bad parent?The constant hyperepisodes are taking their strain especially that i am going through other personal stuff in my life

My daughter seems to be just fully recovered now.My son still has a cough but seems to have plenty of energy.He is not coughing as much but does sound nasty when he does cough.

I think the kids will be right for school tomorrow.My daughter will probably say she is sick tomorrow morning,it will be just her anxiety.

Dear Mark,
I just read your post about grabbing a dvd your son hadn't watched, wrapping it up for him and making him cupcakes because he wanted his birtgday that day ! You are a terrific Dad 😃 i LOL'ed at "I hope he doesn't want to celebrate his birthday again tomorrow." Did he?
(Thanks for the laugh).
Sorry you're not in the best of health at the moment, i hope you feel better soon.

The school wants to drop my son level down from grade 3 that he is in to grade 1.Thats probably because they send him home at lunch time and is so far behind now.
