My friend came round the other day and brought her child to play.
As we were chatting she asking me if I would ever put Ellie in a home.
To be honest at the time, I didn't really think much of it, Just didn't really know how to answer. Ellie is only 3!! Who knows whats ahead?
It was only afterwards when I mentioned it to another friend and she thought it was a terrible thing to ask.
Also my Mum thought it was awful.
But she is a good friend and didn't mean anything by it.
But when I thought later, I would NEVER asked anyone that.
So I am now starting to worry that she thought Ellie was doing so badly that we would consider putting her in a home
Ellie can walk, run, stringing words together, knows who everyone is, aware of things etc and is only 3 , (4 in Aug)
How would you react if a friend asked you that?
