Many times I have given mothers and clients information on what they could or would need to do and many times they just do not do what I suggest. Shocked For example recently I have a mother who is having a difficult time getting her child placed in the proper school setting due to the fact that when she goes to an IEP session she is overwhelmed. Our Aspie group sent her a message and one of our special people who has a great deal of knowledge about IEPs and ASD kids sent her an email. The lady never responded. Sad Rolling Eyes
Okay, should I/we get upset with this mother.....no, because many of our mothers have a lot on their plates, they have a lot to do, some have some forms of Aspergers, some just forget and some get distracted with the stuggle of everyday living.
So what should we do? Question I believe we should continue to try and support them in everyway we can. Well as much as we can because when a child has a ASD diagnosis the problem becomes a problem for the entire family. Just a thought. Dr. Ron

I agree because if I were in her shoes, I think I would have forgot. She could also be trying to do it on her own "trying to be tough" in a way... she'll reach out for help again I bet if things get too hard.
