How often is it a problem...how many teaching hours does he have? I had free periods most days I think, even doing two years in one, has teaching hours for a levels increased?
He has to be at the school even during so called free periods...new rules for the 6th form brought in from this term.We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

Ipbut how often does he have back to back classes in distant places?
Personally the being at school thing seems sensible to help less applied kids knuckle down to work during frees, but the changeovers are the biggest strain for James aren 't they?0 -
haha, my dad used to wash his hair with fairy liquid or Vosene which pretty much looks like the same thing!
Enjoy your weekend birthday Misskool. :beer:
DW is off with the girls to Brighton this weekend, taking in a show. DD's at uni. DS is on a school trip to Spain! Bit stressed about going but he went anyway.

There are a fair amount during the week (I don't know the exact amount per week). It wasn't the walk over which did it this week, it was imaginary stuck in the mud during performing arts, he obviously got very stuck in his imagination! :rotfl:We made it!

It's Jeans for Genes day so I'm suitably attired. And I'm glad to see some of my money going to Ehlers-Danlos Support UK this year.
Sue, your fortitude leaves me speechless.:beer:There is no honour to be had in not knowing a thing that can be known - Danny Baker0 -
DW gets the same. We both think that this mixture produces very cute kids so I bet your DD is beautiful too.
Michaels's kids are not only cute but delightfully behaved as well.Sue, your fortitude leaves me speechless.:beer:
Yeah, speechlessness at Sue's fortitude has been a common occurrence among NP for as long as I can remember. She's amazing.Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area.

Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.0 -
I'm just as stubborn as hell and refuse to give up......but thanks for the kind comments.
Better news this morning, middle son got a B in English which is really quite amazing bearing in mind his last result, think they must have moved on from fictional characters which his Aspergic brain couldn't deal with.
James is at home though, another bad turn and he has also developed the horrible cold youngest had (well still has!)We made it!

Pastures, whose company is this? Somebody that you were thinking of doing business with?
If the first company is in liquidation, they may well have started a new one up, and that's the one that is taking new orders.No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -
No new company noticeable. When people are running websites/stores online these days it can be easier to spot a new company as those things would, probably, have had to change... but it's all running the same it ever was.
Edit: Just checked the website address and the company name on there isn't a Ltd, it's just a company name. Maybe that is what happened.
Edit 2: Cheques to be made out to Ltd company though ....0
