Just wondered really.
My parents and wider family are really supportive and trying to help me encourage Esther with her speech issues.
But my in laws (mil really) just don't seem to be helpful. I know that part of the reason is that mil doesn't want a grandchild that isn't 'normal' as she likes to boast about them and what they are achieving etc. She's also been really unhelpful in the fact that we aren't really telling people about Esther until they ask (obviously family have been told and anyone who has dealings with Esther on a regular basis) but mil is telling people that I don't even know. These people are then 'sticking their oar in' and we've been told to seek second opinions as the people assessing her have more than likely got it wrong!
Just a little vent really and wondering how other people are finding their family with their child.
