good morning ladys i am sorry for just coming on the board all guns blazing last night,

once i get started i can rant on for england,

i was given this website yesterday from county hall when i rang them for help and advice with my son,

i am 26 and a wife and a mummy to 2 boys an 8.5 year old and also a 2 year old

i have been having problems with my older boy for a very long time now infact it started when he was 2 and every since then i have been trying ot get from all over the place but just keep getting pushed from pillow to post all the time , as i am sure most of you guys know how that feels lol

i am at the end of my teather with things now, as my son is getting older things are getting worse and i have told the drs ect that we need help asap as thing are getting to bad for me just to be told we will see what happend, we have been having problems at school since the day he started, and got to the point where for the past how ever long i had to go in to school everyday after dchool to find out what he had done now,

i havent really had a huge ammount of support from the school, hense the ringing county hall yesterday,

i also feel that he really needs some theraoy had he has lits of emotional issues as wel; bles shim,
he is such a loving boy but he just doesnt know how to show it, any way enough about that for now lol,

my younger son, is on alot of medication as since he was born he had had very bad relux, ashma , skin problems, and bowel probs aswe;; so he his on medication 8 times a day bless him ,

i love my boys and hubby very very much,
i would love to get to know you all if you would like a crazy lady like me to gate crash lol,

sorry for the long post people like i said i can talk for england lol

hope to speak to all soon x

This is a great site for support but County Hall should be sending you back to the school for resolution with school problems. They don't sound very supportive.

Have you asked the school whether your son has behaviour difficulties in school as well as at home?
If so:
Your school has a SENCo (Special Educational Needs Coordinator) s/he is responsible for making referrals to outside professionals to help with children in school. There are several avenues available that I can think of off the top of my head:
Speech & Language Therapist will investigate language issues to see if your sons behaviour problems are caused by difficulties understanding what is happening in school.
Educational Psychologist will investgate social and emotional aspects of your sons behaviour and also look for learning difficulties such as dyslexia, which could be at the root of the behaviour.
The school will have access to some sort of Behaviour Counselling for children whose behaviour os causing difficulties in the classroom.
You can ask, as a parent, for a referrral to anyone of these services.

If the behaviour difficulties are just at home, or if the school are really not willig to help once you have spoken to the SENCo, you can ask your GP for a referral to a Clinical Psychologist who will help you sort out serious behaviour difficulties at home.

Good Luck.

i think the educ phys sound slike a great route as ds does really suffer with his emotions and that so i think that woukld be such a great help i really so, i have just found out today that the senco, was actually the head teacher, well on the last day of term she sent us a letter to tell us she was leaving, county hall didnt even know i am just so angry with them at that school they promised do much and nothin come of it,
then they put ds on the sen reg and i sisnt even know really not a happy bunny

i think the school will regreat not helpin me lol
