Parents Stories
These are true accounts from real people but weve changed all names to protect their privacy.
From Josh's mother to his carers: "Our Christmas will be better coz we met you. Thanks will never be enough from us, as you make our lives so much better."
"My oldest boy has Aspergers (syndrome), making it difficult for him to interact with other people. Since he has been going to the family in the country, even my friends comment on how he is so much more confident and happy. Bill and Fiona are like second parents to him."
"The children have changed for the better. They are not so up-tight and don't fight as much. They have made friends with the children in the families they stay with and keep in touch with them all year."
"Time for Kids made it possible for me to have some respite and Peter to have the chance to know another family, which he thoroughly enjoyed. He had a four-day break in which time he was the total focus with these people. I had the time to relax and calm down, to get a second wind. He keeps in touch with what he now calls his 'second family'."
