    Thank you all so much for your replies, it really does mean a lot to me :)

    So today was a better day, it started off with a £34 win on a games offer before school which put me in a better mood to begin with ;) More importantly ds had a better day today, he worked outside the headteachers office in the morning and did very well, then was allowed back in the class for the afternoon and worked to an acceptable standard, he got distracted by a couple of other boys but otherwise was much better :) Tomorrow morning we have another Camhs appointment so I will mention it all there and then on friday we have an appointment at the hospital for an assessment for aspergers or adhd :o I just want to know how to help him, its not just bad behaviour theres more to it than that, he has serious issues, massively low self-esteem and lots of anger/aggression :(

    After school we went and played footie together as I'd said we would as long as he had a good day today at school. Time now for a well earned cup of tea :D

    Shred hsan't been done for the last two days so I need to get that in somewhere tonight, as well as more comps as I didnt do them yesterday either. At least we don't have to go so early in the morning as normal so will not be such a rush tomorrow :)

  • so sorry you are having such a hard time, on top of any inherent things, the crim situation will not be helping and i so hope the school are giving lots of allowance for that, that is a huge thing for a young boy to deal with (and for you to deal with too), dads are meant to be heroes - lots of shame attached to it for someone at an age where he won't have any idea how to cope.....

    thinking of you, and take care of yourself in the meantime:)
