Monday blues. My 14yr old daughter who was coping well recently had a meltdown as I attempted to introduce social skills by prompting her to pay for goods in shops. Went for walk along beach to clear my head. Met a woman with 4 young daughters who she was home schooling and says they are thriving, since she gave up her job to be home with them. Her husband takes his turn when he comes home from work. Here is me, lost my job because my daughter doesn't cope with school environment and no back up. I'm desperate to be out working talking to other adults.
