I have not put my son in a home, but have had family members suggest that I do. He is 6 yr.s old so I have no clue what the future holds but I can tell you it felt awful hearing that from family. The fear this family member had was my son would hurt her younger son, My son is a happy boy and we can go out in public but it can be difficult. I also have my daughter, who is 7 yr.s old, and I set up play dates, sleepovers. and mommy daddy daughter dates. I understand the difficult juggling act. I hope I can care for my son until 18 and then let him live in assisted living of some sort. All parents worry when is the right time to let go and sometimes that troubling choice is made for them. At every new struggle the child goes through so do their parents. One heck of a rollercoaster ride filled with tears , fears, and love. ↑ |
