Families should not have to go broke to care for their disabled kids, (ID/DD Waivers, etc.) especially when there is no help anyhow. Pay family caregivers. The qualifications for care providers are so ridiculously strict anyhow to keep people from 'cheating the system' there is no good reason not to authorize permanently parent/live-in caregivers for kids. In fact, we should be paid something for all the ridiculous, constant phone calls and paperwork and evaluations, etc. etc. and all the work we have to do to fight for our children's needs in the schools, and medically? All of this work with no income for people who CAN'T work due to their childrens' needs, but would like to...why NOT pay us for all we do just because we're related to our children and love them more than anyone else ever would. Why does it matter that they are not 18? That's discrimmination, period.
