AUTHORS' DISCLAIMER:
We are not in any way experts on parenting children with disabilities. Our goal is simply to share strategies that have worked for each of us in the event it may help those in a similar situation. If you're different from us (i.e., you are bright or of the perfect persuasion), we advise you not to try the following at home.
- Ensure that your child gets the right in-school support
- Deal with people--be they friends, family members, or strangers--who say or do insensitive things to you or your child
- Find fun, safe, and inclusive extracurricular activities for your child
- Battle your own grief and seek professional help if you need it
- Keep the rest of the family intact in moments of crisis
