Have you ever felt that your knowledge makes it more difficult to help your child? I am feeling so disheartened. Please could you share any experiences you have. It might be that you are a teacher yourself and can share your experience of teacher's responses to you, once knowing you are a teacher, in connection with their dealings with your child. It might be that you are a therapist with a child who has had need of specialist mental health services as an outpatient. It might be that you are a psychologist who has had need of psychiatric or psychological services for your child. You may be a nurse or a doctor or a health care professional. If your child has been an inpatient in psychiatric services, I would love to know how staff and the system has responded to knowing your profession. This is not research or college work, its just that its really hard when all you want is to help your child through their educational or health difficulties and you just meet such barriers. Please write if you have experienced this.
