I just want someone to tell me it's going to be ok - and look into the future and wonder what I was worried about!
As the subject states my daughter is so far behind at school she is making small steps with reading maths and writing -!she has brought her school report home today and my stomach has sank at seeing the marks and score she has got (not even on the scale )
When she was in year 1 she got a diagnosis of being autistic - we didn't except what we were told. Just is our daughter and just like every other 7 year old I genuinely mean that - the problem is education she isn't one bit interested in learning to read write do maths
Her report isn't bad because she has qualities that you can't teach that she is beautiful inside and out - and I don't say it because I am biased and she my daughter I say it because so many ppl tell me how lovely she is and ppl instantly like her.
But all I can think is she going into year 3 in September still not reading writing doing maths - why me why my daughter all the other mums will be gushing how fabulous their children are and how proud - what do I say ? What do I do?
I am scared for when other children notice she is behind I am scared for high school for mean girls to appear I am scared she won't get job -
Ppl say take a day at time but please has anyone been in this situation and come out the other side - I need hope it's going to be ok
Sorry for the long post and I know people might read this and think there are worse things in the world but she is my world and this is my life .
Thanks
