First Parent Support Group

Went to my first autism parent support group Thursday night. Wow, these families are much more knowledgeable and experienced then I am. They were wonderful! Full of love and support willing to share all that they have learned. I left feeling a bit overwhelmed, but happy to know I had made some new friends that are willing to share and help me (us) along our journey.

YAY! Glad to see you went....I am sure that you will feel their support now and in time will DEFINATELY give that support to someone else!

Oh I am so happy for you! Support groups are wondeful because you get real life people who are dealing with the same issues you are dealing with. Glad you found a good one.

I am glad you were able to make it. It is great to be able to be around others who completely understand what you're going through and can give tips and advice.
