Wednesday - The "Therapist" returns

So it's early Wednesday morning, I am at work and already dreading the visit from the"Therapist". That in itself says a lot! I have made a commitment to give this person one more chance but honestly if they chemistry is not there with him then they will need to find us someone we can work with. I don't want to have to be stressed every Wednesday because this person is coming over. The big issue is that when I tell my local agency I want a new Therapist we could go for 2-3 weeks without any services in home. It's so frustrating but I need to be positive and hope for the best. I just have a hard time being ok with a man who feels my child should be in a group home and feels he is spoiled and not disabled. Yes every child is spoiled in their own way and yes I am his grandmom so that makes it harder to draw the line but I have spent the last six months working to put boundaries and structure in place for him even though it's really really hard for me. Yes I have the middle child syndrome!

More to come after the visit,, wish us luck this afternoon.
