Hi Tina
Just treat your son as you would any other child. Yes he will need extra care in times of illness but let him be himself. Don't wrap him up in cotton wool. I have CAH and my parents let me do things that I wanted to do. As I've gotten older things have become harder but that is life and as Amy says "Think positive" and always "Look on the bright side of life". People do respect that. I know. I have just spent 3 months in plaster and a wheelchair and I can still smile - it's infectious.
