Distracted thought... I'm currently carrying out research about family experiences of having a child suspected of or recently diagnosed with SN. Today 'shop meltdowns' are a distracting topic for me, not just with SN children but generally.
Who can put their hand up and cringe at the realisation that they were once that person who thought/said "When I have a child, there is no way I'd let them behave like that!" 😬Oh I cringe. Half the time, after having a baby, I wanted to join in on the meltdown and just cry like a baby too! Also, I'm totally conflicted as to how I would like others to react to those 'meltdown' moments. I can't honestly remember how reactions made me feel. Should people walk by, try and help, or just give that supportive comment as they pass? I guess it depends on how it is on the day. Relatable thoughts, experiences or stories anyone?
