    Savvy I don't know what you let the boys watch on TV and Internet we stopped my daughter watching those trashy american shows for juniors as the language and behaviour was not at all what we expected or allowed we noticed a difference very quickly

    Ok thanks I was just interested to know. It's a good thing she always does as they bid in that case.
    It's always best to jump through the hoops and hope the school will listen to suggestions in the meantime, especially if social services have an input. I got lucky in Junior school (they did some real out of the box thinking which paved the way for him to go to a mainstream high school, albeit with a very high level of support) and initially in senior school but Infant and the later years at High school were a nightmare. His College was an absolute dream, the setting was perfect, the tutors great, they listened and he excelled.
    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.

    thanks Sue,your reminding me how I dealt with the twins. Bells starting to ring.

    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.
