What to do with a kid who is 5 but reading at a 3rd grade level? I’m trying to work on comprehension with him and more depth (like parts of speech)… but I don’t think he’s enjoying that. Do I just let him read anything and everything he wants without worrying about the rest?

When your kid’s therapist describes his current progress as a “u-turn” it’s quite confronting and hard not to feel like you’ve failed as a parent.

Stop Using my Children to Scare Parents out of Vaccinating
It was never my intention in life to become a vaccine advocate. I have to do enough just advocating for my kids, as two of three are on varying degrees of the autism spectrum. Multiple times a year we...

Husband and I are both sick- upper respiratory crud. Kids have no symptoms of anything. Multiple - RATs btwn husband and myself and a - metrix 5 days into symptoms so confident it’s not Covid. But what other illness do little kids tend to not show symptoms of? No way they didn’t get our germs.

Well here’s a first for me. Didn’t get to drink my coffee because my kid put his foot in it. He said it was an “accident”.

It’s shit that United would cut (more benefits), but ABA is a highly problematic and controversial therapy.
And now for all the comments about how ABA isn’t “what it used to be”… well then change the name?

NEW: After reviewing leaked documents, we have found UnitedHealth is strategically limiting access to a treatment for thousands of children with autism across the country in order to cut costs.
Advocates say the company’s strategy may be illegal.

9:00 AM: laundry started; last load folded.

I used to love Thanksgiving. In 2020 I was disappointed that we couldn’t gather. Each subsequent year I’ve grown to dread the holiday. My little family was pretty much abandoned by those who refused to take c-19 precautions starting in 2021. I’m thankful for my family, but it’s now lonely holiday.

The irony of the ADHD person having to find a pharmacy in network with insurance that can source their ADHD meds and then have to make multiple phone calls to prescriber to send new rx bc old one is at a pharmacy that can’t get meds and blahblahblah. My brain hurts.

There’s a hand hygiene thread in a toddler subreddit I’m still subscribed too. And all I can say is ew. People really don’t wash their/their kids’ hands?
