I feel sad that my amazing perfect son has autism. The world is cruel and knowing he’ll struggle the older he gets breaks my heart. He is the most intelligent boy but is already consumed with anxiety at the age of 6. Other children already mistake his kindness for weakness and are already so cruel because he’s different. I feel angry that I have been fighting for him for almost 4 years and we still are on a waiting list for a diagnosis. I know I’m not alone in feeling like this but I’m furious that we in the UK fail our SEN children due to lack of funding in all areas. I’m so incredibly lucky I know that he’s healthy and he’s mine but I’m so scared for him and the future he has.
