Dear Daynnight--so challenging, so challenging. So hard to be parents when this is how it is, when we are trying as hard as we can and nothing seems to work. I have a challenging child too.

Are your professionals expert in autism/Asperger's? If not, you might also seek additional suggestions from a center that specializes in that. For example, in my city there is a center for research on autism/Asperger's at the big university, and they offer many resources/services. Another idea--do you think it would be helpful to attend a support group for parents of children with Asperger's?
