Is it me ?

Is it me or are parents raising ass holes now a days ? So long story short my kid had a stroke shortly after she was born and we didn’t find out until much later . We noticed as she started getting older that she’s a bit different from other kids and that’s okay . Not many people know about our daughter’s situation because unlike todays social norm we don’t exploit our kids situation for pity likes . But we have noticed times when it’s become an issue. For example there have been many times when I’ve taken her to the park and because of her condition if you will she doesn’t speak whole lot of when she does try it’s not understandable although she is extremely smart. Kids have bullied her and have been out right rude to her because of it . I don’t want to be one of those helicopter parents but it’s ridiculous how few parents will correct their kids behavior. I would love to find a program where there are kids just like her where she can relate and doesn’t feel so out of place. She’s only 3 years old but as I’ve mentioned before she’s extremely smart and does pick up on stuff and has gotten upset because of others not being able to understand her or wanting to interact with her . As a mother this is extremely upsetting and heartbreaking. We as parents are doing everything we can do for our child to set her up for success such as therapy ( occupational, physical and speech) as well as drive her 5 hours away to the best doctors . She’s such a sweet kid and I just wish I could do more .

Is it older kids causing issues? I feel like at 3yrs old there is still a lot of range in willingness and ability to speak for all kiddos. Glad you are able to get to see doctors you feel good about. Sending positive energy ✨

I’m so sorry,Kids are really jerks nowadays, really makes me mad too. It happens with my daughter as well, mine is super sweet kid & these kids at parks are mean & rude. I explain to my daughter what’s going on, say they’re not being nice as best as I can. I can see it hurts her feelings too. I’ve gotten stern with a couple 5-6yr olds, like she is just 3, she doesn’t understand you don’t wanna play with her. To mine kids are kids & don’t know age etc. really I just wanna punch these parents. The parents are there too & don’t correct at all. No advice just in same boat. Ask your dr do they know of any programs etc around you & try googling activities that might help near you
