Sorry I'm sure its been asked lots before but I can't search on my phone.
Ds has a diagnosis of autism, dyspraxia, dyslexia and anxiety. School are saying that although they think he needs a statement that they don't think he'll get one.
This cane after telling me that he's had yet another bad day.
Why won't he? And if school won't help us where can I get help?
The schools version of help is another child sat next to him. Today he got detention at break time because he didn't understand that help. They've said that next time it will be an after school detention. I've rung school and asked why he has been treated as naughty rather than given help. They've said as usual 'we'll nip that in the bud'. Like hell they will.
I've phoned the national autistic society but the automated response says it'll be atleast a week before I get a return call.
Things are no better at home. He says the world would be better off without him and that he doesn't want to be here. I've re- referred to CAMHS after they discharged him after diagnosing autism.
I can't cope anymore.
