Never ending..

So as the title suggests I feel as though my sons therapy is never ending. He's had 3 full days this week at AEIOU and he is just so exhausted, and to be honest so am I.. We had initially looked at having Lachlan do the early intervention program full time, glad I changed my mind. It must be so tiring for the children, I know it's beneficial to their future, but when do our kids get a break?! I'm also having a guilt moment because Lachlan has his first Occupational Therapy appointment tomorrow morning since his assessment, which came back with SPD or Sensory Processing Disorder. Yes another disorder to add to the list, which makes 3 in total now. So my point is I really think I need to pull back on some of his therapy he has privately outside of AEIOU because I think it's getting to be too much for him, and he's still a kid and I need to just let him be a kid, relax and just play. If only society wasn't so harsh on those with ASD or if society were more aware and accepting perhaps we wouldn't have to push our children so hard in the early intervention programs just so they can conform and 'mainstream'.

Anyway I've answered my own question and I am going to pull back on the private therapy for the time being and I'll keep working with him at home the days he's not at AEIOU. Plus I think I'll benefit from this too, my head is jam packed full of information and any more to add to it right now just might cause it to explode haha.
