I really, really need to vent.
i’m not sure if this will get any attention or if i’m even looking for advice but I just really need to talk. my oldest son turns 3 in July. he’s a really bright kid, smart, lovely. but he has an obvious learning delay.. he didn’t roll over til he was 10 months, didn’t crawl til he was 12 months, walked (a few steps) at 13 months. & now he’s about to turn 3 & says a total of (around) 15 words. today he had an evaluation done & they determined he had a “non categorical disability” & a suspicion of autism.
& of course I worry a bit about his future, school, life, but i’m overall okay with the situation.. I love my son regardless.
well, I told his dad.. my husband, and he just yelled over the phone “MY SON DOES NOT HAVE AUTISM.” and hung up. that’s it. the day kept going, got home, cleaned, I carried on. he came home & very aggressively started kissing me thrusting me.. told him stopped. he stopped & went inside the room. i kept cleaning, clearly mad. he came out & told me “my son doesn’t have autism” I explained that they never said he had autism, i tried to explain everything the best I could but all he did was get aggressive, call me a shitty parent, tell me i’m wrong, that i’m lazy (because i’m a stay a home mom) and just so so tired, so mad, all I know is to defend my son.
