Hello I am new to the community and I am seeking any advice/ experience anyone has had with this.
My partner and I have an 8 year old son who has, over the last few months, become increasingly stressed and anxious. Lots of hitting himself, biting himself and obviously lots and lots of shouting.
He has developed an intense aversion to the sound of pigeons and therefore is very reluctant to use his garden swing, which has always been a great way for him to regulate himself.
I have taken a leave of absence from work as the demands of balancing that and helping to care for our son has become too much.
This leave inevitably has to come to an end but there seems to be a lot more benefits to the entire household if I no longer work and become a full time carer along with my partner, but there is also the financial aspect to consider.
Has anyone been in the situation before and could maybe shed some light on this for me please. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
