I’ve had issues with my son since... well, since he could walk. Hitting, biting, running away, destroying the house & destroying everything.
He went to school at 4, I was dragged in every day over his behaviour. Was constantly told how awful & naughty he is. Didn’t get any help. Took him to the doctors, crying my eyes out cos I just couldn’t cope anymore & I’ll never forget the doctor said to me, what do you want me to do? Take him away? No I just want some goddamn help. So he got kicked out of that school.
We moved to another county, and the same difficulties manifested. Constantly being dragged in, no help or support given. Was constantly taking him to the doctors, again, nothing. He was just a “lively child”.
A serious incident happened where he was accused of touching his friends sister. The mother of this child didn’t get the police, social services or anyone involved. She just took it upon herself to spread that my sons a “ped0” around the area. He was 8. I had to take him out of his school because he was being bullied & attacked over these allegations. Straight away I got the police, social services involved, our local MP, nspcc, absolutely anything and anyone I could think of. This went on and on, we were being abused, people coming around to the house, adults screaming at my front door he’s a ped0 c*nt. And I’m a ped0 protector. I kept him indoors for 8 months, the first time I ever let him out he was attacked, punched in the face & his scooter taken. Kept him in for months & months again. Police did nothing. He was being attacked over these false allegations.
One day we drove him to his friends. He ended up walking home. He was viciously attacked by TWELVE children; some in high school. The ordeal went on for 2 hours, but the last 4 minutes was caught on cctv. He was beaten with a metal pole, his face stuffed into a dead bird. Hit and punched in the face over & over. That video made me so fucking poorly & ill, it still haunts me he went through that. He was saved at the end of the video by two passers by, they were interviewed by the police also. Nothing came of it, didn’t even get an apology. But because we called the police, the families of these children started becoming aggressive. Coming to the home, screaming in our faces again that he’s a pedo, calling me a fat cunt, that they were going to beat my partner up. Again, police did nothing. Absolutely nothing. The local MP acted like she was trying to do something but again, nothing. For months I badgered the police and anyone I could think of. In the end I gave up for my own sanity....
Then. Then the woman who started all the ped0 rumours messaged me on Facebook asking to see me. I was still so angry but agreed. She said she had wanted to come and see me a few months prior but thought I’d attack her or something, which I never would, I wouldn’t lower myself. She told me her son had told her he was lying. That he just said it to get my son into trouble and she was sooo very sorry. I appreciate she finally came forward. That took guts, however, my sons life was ruined. No school for 12 months, several attacks, we’d been through several attacks also. I had voice recorded all of this in case she later tried to deny. She rang the police, school, social services & told them the truth but again, way too late. My sons life was down the sh*tter at the age of 10.
One silver lining is he finally got diagnosed as adhd, odd, and is being assessed for asd as we speak & has had a hereditary blood testing which we are waiting for the results on. All that had to happen before I was listened to. 9 years I was going through trying to get him diagnosed. He still has no school. He was home tutored for a grand total of 7 weeks out of like 15 months. They then shoved him into another mainstream school despite me saying this is not going to work. He lasted 5 weeks & 6 days before they called it quits and said he needs special needs help & that’s how I got his diagnosis finally but again the damage had been done, he was put into another school he was kicked out of further damaging his already very fragile confidence. It’s been a two year nightmare.
