Advice
Hi Everybody! I hope this finds you well, I also hope your day is going good. My daughter is 3, will be 4 in 3 months. We are currently waiting on a diagnosis pending next month.
My question is… what did I do? What went wrong? I’m not familiar with any of this because my family is full of addicts and felons so I was never educated on things, I’ve looked at things on Google but it’s always the same. She has a brother who is 8, hitting every target growing up etc. I’m not in denial because it’s definitely evident but once I receive a diagnosis for her, what would I need to expect? Are ABA therapies helpful?
Sincerely a mom who is trying her hardest and I have 0 village besides my partner which is both Children’s dad. Google only goes so far for me, I’m stressed also because by law in our state she has to go to kindergarten by 5. I’m afraid of the care she will receive in public school. What are my options? I’m sorry if this a bunch of rambling.. im just struggling with the idea that she will never get to experience things as I had imagined. (As any parent who has to overcome these things and figure it out)
She’s not completely non verbal and knows some social things but she’s severely lacks in direction.
