And, though I know it's hard, so hard to have a special needs child, that is one BIG reason why I find Biblical Parenting by Crystal Lutton to be more *believable*. Since I know that she has used what she talks about with all types of kids - in public, in private, special needs, and very normal. Dr. Sears also seems to recognize the validity of an individual, and I'm sure that much of it is because he also has children that were *more* and different than the norm.

Dd1 is "more" (boy is she more!

) and she is preciesly the reason I was driven to AP and GBD- I just knew if we tried to parent the way we'd be parented she would be broken.
