I would love support but I can also understand if it's against me since apparently I'm the problem.
Does anyone here know of some reasons (from experience, not Google) why a child may have a developmental delay. I'm just really sic of my mother assuming that I don't talk to my child. My son was lead poisoned and even almost had to get treatment (he would have if I didn't move). Lead poisoning effected him so much that he has signs of autism so I have him being evaluated. He's in the Infant and Toddler program right now.
My mother is really ignorant of that fact. She keeps saying that it's because I didn't talk to him. Well the thing is I don't even say much to her and I don't like to and I don't like talking around her and I don't like being around her so to her I don't talk at all. She didn't even live with me at all or was around most of the time I had my son so far but she assume I and his dad didn't talk to him. I hate that she thinks this way as if there was no other way he could have been this way. Of course it pisses me off like how no one understands us with SA, I don't know anyone who child has a delay or is autistic so of course people will look at it as if it's because MY child is slow because I never talk to him. While all the other children are wild, bad, and cursing. Even then I have a nephew and my nephews bother, and people apparently thought they were late at talking but they have no kind of delay and their parents aren't quiet at all.
But of course because my child happen to be lead poisoned and possibly autistic, I'm the reason why...
