AUTISM
My husband and I have 4 sons, the oldest 3 all have
autism. Because of this, we have gotten very involved in
special education, not only advocating for our own children,
but also for other families in our area. We are in Hunterdon
County in NJ.
LACTOSE INTOLERANCE
Bellyaches aren't any fun. Sometimes 2 to 3 times a day my Angel would be at
the School Nurse, always the same thing. This isn't a kid who eats a lot of
sweets and candy so it never made any sense to me. I was making her school
lunch, so I knew what she had to eat, yet something wasn't making sense.
LEARNING DISABILITIES
Having raised 3 children I learned how children learn. We
all have little tricks when helping them with arithmetic. Be
it pennies, pretzels, buttons or whatever, they finally get
the concept of adding and subtracting.
RAD
RAD when I first heard those initials I thought it was a disease but knew
different because at the time I was in a child development class trying to
obtain a degree in that field.
