Put your attention into the things that are worth fighting for and can increase her independence, self worth, and development the most. In ABA training, they talk about the stages of a parent's feelings as they pertain to their child's diagnosis(es) and it is similar to that of grief. I find that parents sometimes go back and forth between those stages and it becomes fluid as they deal with the challenges, and accomplishments, of their child. My attitude is this: find solutions whereever there is a problem and rejoice when the solution works. Of course, that doesn't mean the emotions aren't there, it just means make them motivate you!Butterfly Ladynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6958931926301153763.post-91848169249703633832012-04-13T11:31:23.385-07:002012-04-13T11:31:23.385-07:00There's such a fine line between not giving up...There's such a fine line between not giving up and accepting your child just as he is. Finding that balance can be such a challenge. Like you, I choose to keep fighting and working and researching and learning.... to make sure that my child has the best possible life and reaches her maximum potential. At the end of the day, we all just have to choose what works best for our family - and recognize that there will be seasons of doing more and doing less. Your mother's heart knows what's best.AlongCameTheBirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04590432394118183751noreply@blogger.com
