I regret having my special ed child. But not the normal children. And even my special ed child I would not unwish- now that I know him- and he got me into teaching, and changed my life, since I was spending so much time at school with him I sort of fell into it, and it was the best thing for me I think. It's pretty much what I was made for.

But I do think all the time about how much easier it would be if he were normal or if he weren't here. I guess I am so overwhelmed with worry about his problems I never get to the point where you are. If I had never had a special ed child perhaps I would feel the way you do about my other children- but I spend a lot of my time being so grateful they are normal I don't think I've ever regretted having them. I am trying to remember a time when I didn't want any of them- but I can't remember one. Of course after very long days I've told my husband I regret them ALL- but I don't mean it.
