Alert! Alert! We Are Having A Meltdown!

I am out with my friends on a nice Saturday afternoon. All of this, suddenly, my phone goes off. My youngest son, is having a bit of a meltdown. I leave my friends and drive home to care for my son. I don’t know what I am going into, but I am ready. I know these things happen. I always expect the unexpected because I know autism is very unpredictable, and anything can happen at any moment. As I have stated in many of my previous writings, I am a single parent of two teenage boys on the autism spectrum. This has affected every aspect of my life. It is why I will not take a job that would require me to be on-call with high demands or take a job that would require me to travel for business. What good would it do me as a parent if I was gone 500 miles away and my kids needed me? <a href="https://medium.com/@StevenLaine1977/alert-alert-we-are-having-a-meltdown-08fda9441474">Read More</a>
