Sorry I haven’t been on for a while I’d like to say I’ve still been reading but I haven’t had time. Ds is being so awful I don’t have time to shit lately.
We’ve had pead appointment today, they have referred ds for his adhd diagnosis today now that he’s 6. He said today he does have adhd you know that I know that, I just need it formally diagnosing before we can medicate him, they have been saying that about 2 years but he was never old enough to refer until now, obviously medication is not what we really want (can play up with the heart etc 
) but we have exhausted every other avenue for his crazy behaviour over the years so what else can we do (!)
Today at the appointment ds was being ok ish, just banging a few toys and climbing the bed and walking around in circles trying to feed the pead pretend toast (fingers almost in his mouth asking the dr to eat it) 😂 we were in there for about 20 mins and his dr said based on what he had seen this morning he most definitely had adhd, ds was being ok though (I say ok, what I mean is not uncontrollably wild which he has done before in there - flooding the sink, climbing in the clinical waste bin and he once spun the dr round on her chair etc etc) so it must be really obvious to the trained eye even when we think he’s ‘calm’ like this morning, he’s obviously showing his adhd. We are just used to the wild child side the ‘calmer’ moments are so rare at the minute.
He asked about his dangerous impulses so I thought I know which one I’ll mention the driving my car up onto the path one and me having to emergency stop and then Dh piped up with oh yeah and a few weeks ago ds broke free from his mums hand in the queue and ran behind McDonald’s counter into the kitchen and started touching all the ovens and fryers and it took two of us to drag him out etc. 
then I said another time he ran away at the beach down a posh driveway and before I had ran and got him in time he had dived head first into a big feature pond and cracked his head open. He just laughed and said I don’t need anymore examples 
I had loads more should he of needed them!
He was writing to the school to ask them to refer him because that’s how it’s done here apparently, that’s no bother though school are 100% with me on everything, although the new senco is just a class teacher she’s just taken on the role so I’m not entirely sure she will know what to do with the forms etc since she’s been the senco about 2 months so I’ll ask to meet her first bcos if its being done it’s being done properly.
I told the dr this morning if he didn’t get medicated soon I’d have a nervous break down and I honestly think the dr thought I was joking (I wasn’t!)
I had parents evening this week and it annoyed me a bit actually, 10 minute slot. She just went over his learning plan for this term very quickly, it was ds to know numbers 10-20 I said he does? She said not consistently. Fuck off! Then it was to get him into the classroom a bit more he’s currently only going into the class about 30 mins a day (stop letting him play outside all day then) and then a 5 minute talk about his impulses, throwing etc and they need to work on the stop signal in a firm voice, I said that’s been a target since he was 2, it hasn’t worked in 4 years it just keeps getting carried forwards to the next bit of paper work....... then she mentioned he wasn’t working at the NC levels and was behind in all areas (you don’t say?) that was literally it. My mum said before as we left what a load of shit that was.
Before my slot me and my mum sat on the chairs watching the teacher and she gave the parents before us some phonic test sheets and going on about how well academically her child was doing etc. Then my slot was just really rubbish she was showing me a sheet from his ehcp of his targets which I already know about since I have my own copy!
