My DS has his assessment with the child psychologist tomorrow, and I'm suddenly feeling all wobbly.

I know we need to get on with this assessment process, and I have been chasing it up, so it is good that things are now moving, but I am feeling all wobbly all of a sudden.
I know I am going to have to start facing up to the fact he has big problems, which I have spent years fighting against in a state of denial.

As he is getting older, his differences are becoming more & more obvious, and I know I need to prepare myself for the worse.

Feeling so churned up about tomorrow, and don't know how I'm going to stop myself getting silly & emotional.

Thats excellent news. It really is all happening. Lets hope your DS is feeling better about himself soon.

Are you allowed to go to all these meetings - well the review meeting really? The SALT usually wants to see parents in my experience so I assume you will go although I always found DS was very distracted by being me there and didn't concentrate so I don't know if it was good or not! I didn't want to miss it though - I'm too nosy apart from anything else!

Just as an aside, does your DS chew thing? I have just had to tell my DS 4 times to stop chewing a cushion! Drives me mad!!! If he stops chewing that it will be something else. Teeth marks on loads of toys at the mo. Ahhhh!!! Worse than a 2 y.o.

I will be going to the SALT with DS, but don't think I will be expected at the school based review.

My DS does sometimes chew his sleeves, but I haven't noticed it so much recently.
