I am very worried about a friend of mine. She has two dss, both with SN and seems to have become totally detached from them. We had a long chat yesterday and she said she feels that she has given up on them and has no expectations from them. She herself is a very high achiever and I think this may be colouring her feelings.
She says it is too painful seeing them around NT children and she has just shut off her feelings for them. I feel very sorry for her but more so for the children, and am not sure if she will get over this.
Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.
SN children
Parents who give up on their children with SN
