Introduction

Hi! My name is Amanda and I am a younger parent of an 18 month old boy with disabilities. I am looking for other moms who have positive and supportive advice for my husband and I. I grew up with a handicapped brother and sister, but when it is your own child it is much harder. I look forward to talking to other parents!

    welcome Amanda!

    This tribe may not stay really busy, but we're all pretty friendly and supportive of each other ;-)

    Hello, I've made a few posts now and I guess I will introduce myself. MY name is Patty and my son with AS is Matt and is 16 !!! What a ride this has been . I will tell you for all of you with younger children with AS or other disabilities , PLEASE think of your selves as blessed . There will be a time, such as mine, when now without provocation my son says "I love you , MOM. " that it will dawn on you that no other child would have made me realize that those are the three most important words in any language. Keep on fighting the good fight and Merry meet to all of you :)

      my son shilo is ten, and he just started to say 'mama'.
      i think the day i hear him say 'i love you' will be the happiest day of my life.
      thanks for the nice thought! xo
