Episode 32: When Independence Gets Messy

from Rockin the Difference · host Chandra Neal/Single Mom/Special Needs Mom/Special Needs Sports Program Board Member

The Independence I Asked For I spent 23 years fighting for Ryan’s independence. Now that he’s an adult, he’s giving me exactly what I asked for… and it’s driving me a little crazy. 😂 From clogged toilets and broken furniture to shaving mishaps, dirty walls, and a whole lot of “Mom, I’ve got this!”—we’re talking about the messy, frustrating, hilarious reality of letting an adult child with blindness and autism become more independent. Because sometimes the hardest part of independence isn’t teaching them how to do it… It’s learning when to let go. And yes, Ryan is also a Taurus. So…there’s that. ♉️😂
