Hi, I am mum to a 6 year old girl with Aspergers. I sometimes find it very isolating as I don't know any other parents of children with Aspergers. We have lost friends over the past year mainly down to the fact that I have to cancel outings at the last minute if my daugter is having a meltdown usually over something sensory. I feel that my friends don't understand what its like every day living with what comes with Aspergers (the nightmare mornings, the sensory overloads, the many meltdowns etc).
This is my life and I wouldn't change my children for anything but would be great to have some friends who can relate to the many stressful and challenging parts of our family life.
