Dear T,
If I didn't know you were probably driving to the conference at the time, I probably would have reached out to you this afternoon when I was really struggling with my daughter. I just felt really alone out there, and that all the people seeing what was going were probably judging and thinking I was a bad mom, not knowing that my daughter's on the spectrum. And that she kept kicking and trying to bite me, so I had to be a little tougher on her than usual. Or when she kept trying to run away. I just felt helpless. And that people would think I was hurting her. I know you say I'm a great mom, but sometimes I just think I should be able to handle it better...
