Janie Reade is the pen name I use to write about my unusual parent-child relationship with my son Joey. He lives with a severe genetic disorder that is difficult for him and the people who care for him all day every day.

MOM
Now, as the mom of three young adult men, it is easy to know that my priority is my relationship with each of my children. To have good relationship with each of my sons, I still use observation, analysis, trial and error, research, attention to my own wellbeing, and finding mentors to help me. It may be unusual to see parenting written about in this way, but I believe these basic strategies may help anyone.
