Welcome. Parenting is never easy. But parenting a teen who has social emotional issues, whether due to learning disabilities, a psychiatric condition or a brain difference even harder. It can also be isolating. Here is a safe place to talk with other parents who know what you are going through. Also please note that this advertisements that may appear when you visit this group are not necessarily endorsed or recommended. Placement decisions need to be made carefully and with the input of everyone who is working with the child including doctors, therapists, parents and teachers. An inappropriate placement can do more harm than good.
