Oh how I hate the end of the year awards for school! Don’t get me wrong, I am actually happy for all of my friends and their children, but it brings me down.
My son’s behavior is hit or miss. He is a type 1 diabetic and also suffers from ADHD, general anxiety disorder and depression. His mood can be all over the place.
I have been one of those parents that have never planned on medicating my children (with the exceptions of when they are sick). You know when they say, “never say never”. Oh boy how our lives have changed!
I know that sounds odd that I am starting before the beginning, but family medical history is important! I never realized how important until I was a mother with children suffering from mental illness.
