From the article: You Deserve Respect
Do you sometimes feel you deserve a medal for something you've done for your child with special needs? Made it through an IEP meeting without tears? Gone a whole day without yelling? Made a meal specifically to dietary and obsessive-compulsive specifications? Share what you'd like to get some appreciation for, and I'll consider adding it to an upcoming gallery of fun certificates, ribbons, and awards for parents of children with special needs.
