My son is almost 5 and in reception class at mainstream school. All this school year he has only been doing 12:50-15:30 due to him not settling. This, if feel was more requested by the school than me and his mum. Anyway he is leaving mainstream and starts special school in September. We're on my having family and close friends for a party next weekend and his birthday falls a week on Tuesday. With him only doing a few hours is it unreasonable for me to leave him out of school and do something special with him... NOT THAT HE IS AWARE IT'S HIS BIRTHDAY he has little understanding of the world and is on the Autism diagnosis assessment waiting-list. He has a class disco the following day and I know for a fact it will unsettle him (he scarpers anytime he has to go into the school hall, he has very basic language and I don't want him pushing out at other children and ruin their day)
Please don't judge me because it's been a tough year with him only doing part time + with his young brother doing preschool and me and his mum working full time and her almost full time. It would just be nice to do something for the day, seaside or something as a family.
