Letting Go: Learning To Release Our Kids Into The World (Part 3)

As special need parents, we believe God has entrusted us to care for our children.

But should we release our kids into the world like a typical parent would? Or should we care for our special needs kiddos indefinitely on our own?

There are no cookie-cutter answers to these hard questions, but it helps to talk with a parent who is a few steps ahead.

In Episode 19, we continue our series “Letting Go: Learning To Release Our Kids Into The World” by interviewing Fern Douglas.

Fern is a wife and mom of three. Her son, Alex, was born mentally and physically disabled. She shares openly regarding her struggles as a parent and how her and her husband prayerfully decided to place their son at the age of 20 into a group home.
