Button, that is scary, glad she is ok Looks like it could have been a lot worse. How is the lad she was with?

He's fine, had bruises and cuts, and glass in his leg because he had to smash the window to get them out. We went into his room at the hospital (he was still waiting to be seen when we left, must be because Lisa is 15 she got seen quicker?) and were talking too him, he seemed very stunned, and kept apologising to us, but we told him it wasn't his fault. He managed to go out to the car today, so I think he's okay, I'll ask my sister later how he is doing. Feel quite bad for him, his parents didn't even bother going to the hospital to see him, they told him they weren't coming in as they wanted to sleep :eek: He's only 18!

MM, OH bought this house at 19 too I have paid nothing towards it (although I did lots of DIY and bought lots of furniture, gadgets etc) I'm very proud of him, especially as the tutors at college told him he'd never ammount to anything :mad:

good on him :j I like to hear of people going against what they were told at school or college. I was told I wouldnt pass my GCSEs and I ended up with 2 As 4 Bs 3 Cs and a D then went on to get 2 A levels as well and my CeMAP exams too, so :p:p to the stuck up careers teacher that told me to go to tech !!!

he is 19 months and a handful! i have looked into something called 'PICA' which is a iron deficiency that makes people eat strange things! the things he loves to eat(and obviously like the taste of?) are all on the list?

maybe get him checked out honey, were you anemic when preg with him?

i was naughty on my diet i ate after 6pm i just had 4 snack a jack x

honey the best way to keep your metabolism up is to eat frequently!! I personally don't think its healthy to not eat after 6pm, 9pm maybe...

My careers advisor told me not to take my year out coz I'd never go back to education after being away, well up your Mrs C coz I did go to Drama school and got by BA!!

ETA you know what I feel better after that little rant!!!

scruffy its just something i have looked into recently, can i ask about behaviour/ Charlie is wild, nothing tires him out. he is a lot of hard work and he eats everything. coal out the fire, hungry hippos balls, anything that he can get he eats. he takes much delight in finding his dads cigarettes and eating them??
he is like he has been filled up on e number and wound up. today has been a bad day as i have slept and he needs to have attention all the time. he has attacked all the kids today biting pull hair and throwing things at them. he also hits himslef and pulls hir own hair?

sami i was going to speak to doc about it on wed when im there, thinking about it he does have a high iron intake and healthy diet? but that doesnt mean he is absorbing the iron?

I don't want to be seen to be giving medical advice but I have been reading your posts about him and there have been doubts in my mind, as some of his characteristics (big word for this time of nite) are very like those of autism, but then again he could just be being a little rebel of a wee man!!! mIght be worth speaking to either HV or seeing doc just to chat your worries/concerns over with someone.
