It feels like we are at the beginning of a journey, ds1 is 4.5 yrs and in reception, he has glue ear (first set of grommets going in in 2 weeks) School haved recognised this I have pushed for hearing tests which at preschool he was assessed by the intergrated disability service and school have got the ed psyc in, I have no idea what they are looking for, the ed psyc says he is 'different' to the other children, plays on the edge of groups, daydreams, is complient but takes a long time to get round to doing things, gets fixated on things and doesn't understand why he can't do it ie MUST sit in the middle of the line in assembly even if that means pushing other children out of the way. She is coming to observe him at home. I don't have a problem with him, he has two younger brothers and is managable, he can read and write really well so he is getting a lot out of being at school even if they don't think he's engaging
Anyway I'm getting frustrated and upset, I don't want this constant barage of feedback about my child, its hard not to take it personally, to think that we should have done more to help him understand how to behave at school.... how do you not take it personally? I'm too close to the 'issue' to look at this objectively... just want to chat really
