DS2 has severe autism, is non verbal and has possable sld and adhd. I send the appeal form off which the recieved 18th dec. I got a huge envelope of notes through the post today which took ages to go through and they have given the reasons why they have refused it.
They have said that although he has a severe mental impairment caused by arrested devlopment of the brain because he can feed himself (dry food only) and his salt is appempting to introduce PECS( 4 months at stage 1 with no progress) that he has enough usefull intelagence to mean his violent outbusts and refusal to comply is a concious decision by him. WTF yes he can eat toast or chips by himself but he also eats his own poo? Is that what most 3.9 boys do? I don't think so.
Does anyone else think they are grasping at straws or is it just me.
