  I would advise against relocating to Florida with neurodiverse children, as my own experience with obtaining services for my child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has been challenging. If you do not plan on enrolling your child in an autism-specific charter school immediately, I recommend exploring other options.Florida may not be the best choice for families of neurodiverse children seeking adequate educational resources and support.

Which can be overwhelming at times. It was very difficult to wake him up, dressing and preparing breakfast before my own shower to ensure timely school drop-off and work commencement .

  Recharging and taking breaks as parents is crucial for your well-being. Here are some tips: 1. **Schedule Me-Time:** Plan regular "me-time" into your schedule. It can be as short as 15 minutes or as long as a few hours. Use this time to do something you enjoy, whether it's reading, taking a bath, or going for a walk. 2. **Share Responsibilities:** Split parenting duties with your partner. Taking turns can give each of you a break and reduce stress. 3. **Accept Help:** Don't hesitate to accept help from friends or family members.

Connecting with others who understand your challenges can be refreshing. 6. **Prioritize Sleep:** Ensure you and your partner get enough sleep. Lack of sleep can make parenting mor...
