I am a mother of a Special Needs Child who is 17 years old now. I have cared him in a very special way since he was born. He had less oxygen at birth cause a delayed development. He is a A student still some classes are special ed but some are mainstream. He has come out of his shell. He has no behavioral issues but we are working on his social skills. We have come along way. I would be a great caregiver to your child as I know and understand how they feel and how they understand things.
