The Ones Who Get It
Everybody needs their people. The ones that understand without you needing to explain. The ones you feel safe with. The ones who will always be there. This is especially true when you have a child with a rare condition as life is hard enough as it is.
Aderet Therapy Weekly is a weekly paediatric physiotherapy podcast for parents of babies and young children, made by Aderet Therapy in Campbelltown, in the Macarthur region of NSW. Each episode mixes short talk segments with original songs written for the week's topic. This is a song from the episode "What is "Cat Cry" syndrome?".

Lyrics
Verse
My kid does things another way
Not wrong, just not the norm
And I explain it every day
I fill in every form
Chorus
And then there's the ones who get it
Nobody asks me why
They pass the biscuits, and they sit
Mine did it too, oh my
Verse
I searched the web, I felt so small
At midnight, on my own
Then someone wrote: me too, that's all
And I wasn't alone
Chorus
And then there's the ones who get it
Nobody asks me why
They pass the biscuits, and they sit
Mine did it too, oh my
Bridge
Somebody's kid is on the floor
And no one stares or sighs
They pass a cuppa, nothing more
No judgement in their eyes
Chorus
And then there's the ones who get it
Nobody asks me why
They pass the biscuits, and they sit
Mine did it too, oh my
Outro
Oh, the ones who get it
Pass the biscuits, let's sit
