or you are still waiting/trying/begging/have given up...
Please tell me how much you talk to your DC's teacher about what's going on at home...particularly if he/she masks their problems there
my DS's keyworker at nursery has been amazing despite all HCPs telling us there's nothing wrong (because he masks spectacularly and saves it all for us!!) but she just looks at me weakly every time I mention something...For example this morning he had an hour - long meltdown
I tell her some of the stuff we're dealing with because a) I want to see if any behaviours are present there b) I want to know what's happening there to see if it's affecting the way he is at home and c) he's my baby and this shit is way more than a child should have to cope with and I want to know somebody knows what's happening and looks out for him
but every time I tell somebody and they give me 'that look' or say he's just a boy or he'll grow out of it or kids just love to manipulate their parents/test the boundaries another piece of me dies inside...leaving nursery/starting school is proving very very stressful for him and he is in a state of mania or panic 90% of the time he is at home/with us right now and in turn my anxiety levels are shooting up, I'm in tatters...how do you keep fighting for your child when nobody believes a word you're saying???
