Are these emotions normal

Hi All who come across this,

life for my daughter hasn't changed as such due to the fact I had already adapted to who she is from gaining valuable insight into her just through observing the things she does however for me I seem to be going through a roller coaster of emotions since my princess was diagnosed asd only a week ago, I always believed my daughters hearing problems to be the reasons behind her special traits.

i feel like I've been told this and that's it your on your own, go get on with it, which is funny as I have brought my daughter up for years now, so is this a normal reaction as a parent to go through so many emotions, denial, loss, feelings of failure and plenty more.

i am so proud of my daughter she is a real inspiration to me and various other family members.

Any feedback would be great

have a great day everybody :-)

  • Hi Crystal, I hadn't even thought of a statement of education needs and the teacher made a very judgemental comment saying "you won't get a statement as there are children with more needs that are worse than your daughter", this was during a discussion regarding my daughters diagnosis and during this discussion I never once mentioned a statement the teacher seemed to make that judgement based on what I was saying.

    I realise she was being defensive about her teaching and that's why she was saying such things to me, at the time I was very angry so opted to keet my mouth closed as the words I had wasn't appropriate to say the least.

    Thank you for all the information I will bare all that in mind and will be making certain that my daughters needs are met to enable her to reach her full potential, sadly children seem to be smugly put in the failed box because they are not up to schools standards all schools seem to care about it are the children who get handed a print out with work on it and just get on with.

    sorry for seeming like I'm ranting away.

    have a nice day :-)
