      I admit I'm at the end of my rope. I'm separated, I've got three kids and two of them are autistic. My partner is ten times the parent I ever was so I always feel like I've got to compete. This whole situation came about because I wanted the boys to have a good time sledding but my youngest just couldn't jive with it. In the end I just lost it and slapped him. I feel absolutely horrid now, plus my ex noticed the mark and now she's threatening to make sure I never see him again. I just don't know what to do now.
