Venting

[Guest guest]

Just need to kind of vent here. My daughter Molly who has AS was sexually assaulted by a boy yesterday after school on school campus. Molly was molested by a family member over a two year period ending when she was in 6th grade (2 years ago). Basically she is very well endowed, and gets teased a lot by the kids at school. She takes a math credit recovery class after school to make up a failed math class. After class a boy asked her to come here and she followed him, she then told her to take off her shirt to which she kind of said no, he took her shirt of groped her and bit her and showed her his penis. Molly was too frightened to really do anything. The police came and everything, I really feel sorry for this kids mom!!! He will most likely be arrested, although they cannot prove criminal intent, and she is very reticent about being in the autism spectrum, so intent could be a

hard one - I would have to say he will be expelled for this, and he did say it happened, but that he thought it was consensual. I had the police explain to her that it is acceptable and REQUIRED for her to hit scream scratch or whatever to prevent this because it was preventable. Between this whole thing and Hope's two hour school day, I am teetering on losing my job - I don't know = I mean I am pretty much able to do around 75% of my job from home, but with Jarrod gone for the week to Hawaii on Navy business, I am just on sensory overload myself. I realize that the previous sentence makes me sound pretty heartless and self centered, however, my job is what helps me to maintain a sense of myself, I do not do well as a SAHM - been there done that - with all four of the kids carrying dx's plus me - i have severe adhd and chronic major

depression - well - lets just say that for me work is my therapy. I am working on keeping things light here - Hope and I had floor time, playing and singing silly songs and so forth. I am just tired - I had to pick up Hope and found out that my Sara Bear who is 9 and severe adhd hasn't turned in homework in three weeks, and kicked a boy in the library today (guess who forgot to give her her meds today?) Sometimes, juggling all of this seems like more than I can deal with - yet, I have to keep in mind that God only gives us as much as we can handle - but to quote mother Theresa - I sure wish He didn't trust me so much!
