Ruth, please believe that you did not do everything wrong. I mean
was there a training book in how to deal with these type of
children??????????? It very much sounds to me like you have taken her
everywhere to all the therapists etc.
It is a struggle, and oyuhave to keep focusing on the positive. Find
what she is good at, what she likes, what motivates her. She may not
be the most academic type but Ill bet she has many other talents.
Sending you a big hug, cos I know how you feel, Hinda--- In
