Glad to Know that they are Well

Remember that day a mother poured out to me about her family problems? She came back to me again to let me know that she and her husband are well already! I'm so glad that they are together again. I even bumped into them in Tesco. So glad that a family was united again.

Hmm..the quiet understanding and support from the husband is really important. Through this, I suddenly felt that having kids can be a test to the relationship of a couple. Many arguments arise when they have children, what more a special child.

Life seems hopeless when they have a special kid. All they would do is to seek for help everywhere, anytime. They are very sensitive to what they hear. They get hurt by people around them. Those people could be strangers, their relatives, in- laws, even teachers and husband/ wife. It's indeed stressful.

Many times, I see lost moms in the center especially when their kids are cranky. Some times, even teachers can't help them, as the teachers may not know what's wrong with that child. They have challenge every day because the kids behave differently anytime. It's unpredictable.

Hmm..except support and prayer, I can't really do much! People out there can make a difference, try not to stare at them or comment on their kids publicly when they behave differently from other kids. We need to educate the younger ones to learn to love them instead of despising them for Gos is Love.
