I am hoping that this will be a place where parents of special needs children can discuss, vent, learn, and support one another. We as special needs parents have unique issues and lives compared to the main stream of families. If you have had the experience where you are sitting with a group of friends and everyone is talking about their children's soccor achievments, Honor Role grades, and how little time they get with their teenagers, and you try to share your experience. For instance, "My son Joey (15) just sat up in bed for the first time yesterday!" or, "I get a night out without Joey this weekend!" and then the room is silent and all the other moms look at you and you can hear a pin drop. Then this is a place where you will get a YAY! We can understand oru worlds better. So why not have a place where we can share. I put this on a book site because we can also share information and books that have helped us or our kids. Some of us don't have time to read much, so this way those of us that do, can help and support those that dont.

A sideline note... this is not a religious grp. So pls try to refrain from having religious discussions. I know that faith can play an important part in giving one strength to meet challenges and I am a very spiritual person, but faith is a very personal thing. We will already be talking about things that are highly emotionally charged, we don't need any more emotional fire on top of that that might sidetrack away from the purpose of this group. Thank You
