There was a thread yesterday, can't find it now but it all ended up in a shameful pile on with covid Nazis taking great joy in sticking the boot in with whataboutery and what makes you so special. The usual shite whilst having absolutely no clue what it's like trying to contain the needs of a disabled adult who quite often have daily exercise written into their care plan. Please bear in mind this is a tiny minority of the population, most people don't have a significant learning difficulty. Nor will they be profoundly Autistic. 🙄

Well this has happened........thankfully whoever is in charge has more compassion and common sense than the plebs who educate themselves on current affairs by reading take a break. 🧐

Thanks for posting
I too have a dc with Sen I didn't read the thread but I can imagine what was what .
Tbh I don't know why anyone would genuinely ask a question on here especially regarding coronavirus because too many people think they know instead of reading the news or gov website it's all based on gossip or what they think you should do . Look at all the exercise threads for example.
We are all trying to do our best unfortunately on mumsnet it's turned into people either posting incorrect information or just genuinely being very horrible to whoever posts .

I didn’t see yesterday’s post but I completely agree about the vitriol and misery of some posters. It is always better not to judge, always better to be kind.
I think the government have tried really hard to get things right in an incredibly complex situation.

Thank you for posting this, it's reassuring as I've been really worrying about driving to take DS somewhere safe and suitable.

Thank you for the link, and I've just checked, it's been posted on the other thread too.

Thankyou so so much my son has autism adhd and learning difficulties and attends a specialist school so this is extremely helpful. I’ve been carrying his behavioural plan and risk assessments around with me as it is
