As the beginning of the new school year approaches I cannot help but feel a sense of uncertainty. While all parents probably experience this at one time or another, parents of exceptional children, I believe, carry an extra burden. This year my children will begin a new school with my teachers, new classmates...mom is pretty overwhelmed! I wish there was a manual for parents of exceptional children on how to survive the school year!
