What My Special Needs Parents Did Right: An Interview With Emily DeArdo

Accepting the Gift

Being a special needs parent can be overwhelming and frustrating. It’s not that we don’t love our kids, but it’s hard to be a caregiver, parent, and now for many of us, the primary educator and therapist day in and day out.
