I have over 9 years of dealing with special needs children and I also have a sister with sever Autism who is soon to be 11 years old. Caring for children with special needs is just like caring for any other child except they need and want a little more attention and you need to have patience that is key. It is a beautiful thing and Depending on what's going on with the child do you know how amazing it is to see them growing and developing and doing things the doctors said they couldn't? Children are amazing & it is truly fascinating to watch them grow.
