I'm wondering whether I should do this? DS1 is 10, he's articulate when he's inspired to be. I think he's perfectly entitled to be asked his rather strong opinion directly.
The thing is, he is almost guaranteed to be intimidated by a room full of strangers and relative strangers (he knows one of the LA witnesses, from way back has never met the other). He's in danger of going off on a rant, when asked about school. He's equally likely to hide under a table.
So it would be hard on him, but no harder than being expected to continue in mainstream, to be honest. And surely having the panel meet him and possibly witnessing him doing pretty much what all the reports describe can't hurt his case?
Thoughts, anyone?
