Each parent of a child with special needs approaches their situation in their own unique way. Having the support and understanding of other parents who have walked in your shoes can provide comfort and connection. Sharing experiences, suggestions, and resources can help relieve some of the stress you may feel. Sometimes it just helps to connect with someone who wants to listen because they’ve been there.
