Today we went on a trip organised by ss through aiming high funding to the Daisy Chain a centre for children with ASD and other disabilities. For those who don't know my 2 youngest, I have dd 13 who's ADHD and ODD who I never saw as she hurried from one group to the next, (even though we were split into groups so we all got to do everything)making sure she done everything at least 3 times. So I never saw her all day except for the 5 mins she wanted to eat!!
My other ds 9 who is primarily downs, complex and challenging, was spaced out and sat in a corner, not moving and not doing any of the activities, until my friends husband carried him to the toilet for a nappy change, once there I managed to change him then went to the toilet myself. Whilst on the toilet he decided to do a runner, however he didn't run far (as always)literally 5 steps from the toilet, it was the fact he unlocked the door and ran out leaving me sitting there on the throne!!!
