We had an initial assessment with a community paed over three weeks ago, which I posted about at the time. DS is almost three and concerns are it's ASD.
We've heard nothing back, our HV and GP don't even have the report.
I've just opened this mornings post and got a letter telling us we have been referred to child protection.
Apparantly at the appt I smelled faintly of alcohol and didn't engage encouragingly with the DC.
I m so angry, at the appt it was me, DP and our two DC, it was mainly questions directed at us, for over an hour, in a hot room with no toys or distraction for the children. They were not interested in the books I'd brought from home. I tried to stop them grabbing the measuring tapes/ pulling rolls of tissue down etc, but could hardly be relaxed.
As for the alcohol, we had a bottle of wine between us the night before over dinner. is that a crime?
The letter also not only refers to me as 'mrs x' when I'm actually mrs y (we are not yet married) but also spells Ds's name wrong (trivial I know, but annoyed me)
I'm scared and angry, especially that resources might be wasted on this and not where we actually need them.
Useless f's.
Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.
