If You Ask

If you ask for help, don’t be surprised if you get an answer. Also, don’t be surprised if the answer is not what you were looking for. This weekend I answered a post to a group on Facebook. A parent of a special needs child had asked for help with a particular issue. I answered, giving my professional advice, based on training, experience, and the limited information I had available to me at the time. I was shocked by the intense anger of her reaction. If you want a few suggestions from sympathizers, post to Facebook. If you need customized solutions, consult appropriate professionals who can examine your individual situation.
