My kids are both special needs. Both have different mental or medical conditions. Because of this, they're homeschooled. I honestly love but hate it. I want them to get out and make friends. I want a moment of quiet. I want them to become independent. But I can't. It's risky. My husband doesn't help much. It's mostly me. I'm stretched so thin that I think about self harm or worse just about every day. My kids don't have friends. My brother is a dick and doesn't let his kids play with mine unless it's a holiday. I don't have friends either. I've tried local play groups but nothing. I'm just exhausted. In every way possible.
