Ok son is 8 and has special needs, he is very obsessive about things and wants all the information and facts about his interests.
So he had a 3 year obsession with vacuum cleaners but now its the loch ness monster.
He wants to go to Loch ness and he thinks there will be a loch ness monster.
It is a long way from us about 8 hours in the car with no stopping and son can really only handle 1 hour in car at a time. Id say a 3 hour journey he could do in one day with lots of stops. There is only me and him so I cant entertain on car journey with me driving.
Train is even longer journey.
It would cost an absolute fortune for us to get there and it couldn't really be done in a weekend as too much travel for him.
Son has had a really rough couple of years and not much makes him happy other than his interests.
He has asked me to go as he watches documentaries on you tube and reads books etc.
Now I cant see me having the money or think he could do the journey to it but thought we could go to the lake district and I could say its the loch ness.
Is this absolutely crazy to pretend a lake is the loch ness so he can think he has been?
