We have just come back from a visit to see DS,s psychologist.
DS has been very agressive and not wanting to leave the house since he went back to school.
Me and DH knew there was something wrong but couldnt get it out of him.
Anyway he opened up to the psychologist and told him he is being bullied by 3 boys in his class.
So i telephoned the head and she,s like "names,class,what are they doing etc etc" really snappy and off with me.
I said "mrs T u know of the problems that DS is having and that the hospital say he is on the autistic spectrum"
"yes i read the report" she says.
"well, he needs extra help in the playground, ie supervision because he cannot defend himself and i am fed up of him coming home upset"
"right i,ll refer him to the learing mentor"
WHAT?
she didnt even ask to see us and when i told her i was keeping him off because he,s distressed she wasnt bothered.
Also one of the boys mothers is a very good freind of mine and ive now got to phone her and tell her before school do, im dreading it and dont know what to say to her,she is having an awful time her DH left her to bring up 4 kids on her own and i feel terrible having to burden her with this.
I really need some advice if any one can help cos i cant think straight at the moment
thanks
