First I encountered doctors, and I was banking on that they would have answers on what they told me. And don’t just accept what they say, unless your gut instinct tells you otherwise. Then there’s the school system, This is definitely a learn as you go journey and a parent must be informed, otherwise the child just becomes a pawn in the system.
Currently I’m working on forming a parent advisory council for our local school district and our Special School District so that these two districts can work collaboratively.
Going out into the community and around peers my son’s age becomes challenging as well. Openmindedness is imperative because my 14 year old son is very similar to other 14 year olds, however his brain is wired differently and does things unlike what other 14 year olds do, yet he likes to be around his nondisabled peers, even though they don’t interact much with him
