Hi @StarPotter24 - & welcome to this friendly community. Thank you for joining us all. It sounds like your son is fortunate to have such a lovely mum. Please do have a look around & join in with any discussions; there are links to these at the top of the page. How are you doing today?

Thank you for allowing me to join I have dealt with most issues surrounding my son alone so this is definitely new to me and a little daunting to be honest. I internalise most things so I may find it difficult initially but I am hoping in these strange times that this will help relieve some of my stress and anxiety.

That is just what this community is for @StarPotter24 - you can talk here about anything, knowing that some of our members will understand what you're going through. We also have light-hearted discussions & word games in our virtual 'Coffee lounge,' which offers some distraction, which we all need at times. Do chat here any time.

Welcome @StarPotter24 It's good to meet you!
I am always in awe of single parents. They do an amazing job and often don't get the credit they deserve. Your son is very lucky to have you
Our community is here whenever you need anyone to rant to or whenever things feel like they are too much. I understand it can feel daunting at first but please don't be afraid to share anything that is troubling you, we get it and want to support you.
Please give me a shout if you need any help getting around. In the meantime, feel free to have a nosey in our coffee lounge and at our recent discussions to see if anything takes your fancy
