As the parent of a child with special needs, you are too aware of the risks, stresses, and complications that come with caring for your particular loved one. This becomes infinitely more complex when the parents of a special needs child decide to part ways, whether this be through a divorce or a breakup between unmarried parents. A day in the life of caring for a special needs child is intense, and a single parent will need plenty of financial and emotional support.
