The asda ones are great for that yes after a few months they start getting dull but they don't crease easily. He refuses to wear anything ironed as he says they feel stiff and wrong.
His current size are 5.50 for 2 so great on price. Him and buttons is just asking for a meltdown so he has velcro. Once he has outgrown the biggest size they do I will probably have to special order them, or fix some myself 😅.

Aww bless him its sad ain't it but its beautiful because they are amazing and being neurological makes them there own person. my little boy hes 4 has to strip off loves being nude hates clothes so with school uniform every morning I have to literally have to spend 3 hours doing bit by bit he gets up at 3am by 7 hes dressed and out the door for 7.45 he would love velcro would be so much easier for him aswell but im not sure its wise as he would be nude within 5 seconds 🤣🤣 he hates buttons and the elastic at the side trousers but I cant find ones that fit there either to big to small not enough room .I feel like sometimes its a massive battle then he gets quite violent xxxx

So they do the velcro polo's as well as shirts which he might forget its velcro because the physical buttons are still there to see and touch just as decoration. My son would forget on the polo's until the ta would remind him (every pe lesson).
For trousers they do half elasticated waist full pull ons or with a zip and slider fastening instead of a button. My son hates the adjustable waist ones as it was just more buttons he could feel against his skin. He switched to full pull ons for a few years then moved to the zip and slider.
This time last year I was still physically dressing him but now he is able to do it all himself, granted I put all his clothes out ready and it takes close to 45 minutes but he knows there's no buttons at all for him to try and fasten so he is a lot calmer.
He also has shoes with elastic laces and velcro because one of his fidgets is laces... the knotts he created left many adults baffled.
For sensory safe (tag info printed directly onto clothing so no actual tags to irritate) easy on uniform asda is my go to I haven't found any other that comes close.

What the heck!!!!
So you have been waiting all this time and now no one knows what is going on??? Thats awful, im so sorry this is happening to you :-(

Hiya, sorry new here. I sent my sons COC form 30th April, is anyone around the same time and still waiting?? Thanks x

i know, I’m so stressed out🙈 my little one hasn’t been to nursery(he only goes for 2hours) since Wednesday as he’s withholding doing the toilet and he’s still not done it so he’ll be off for a few more days so really don’t have the time to be dealing with this at all as he just clings to me all day as he won’t walk as he’s uncomfortable🥹 I’ve managed to get him settled down with some melatonin and hope he falls asleep for a few hours while I try to make a start on the form incase they need it asap but my head is like mash and I can’t concentrate at all😬 it’s the not knowing that’s bugging me, as I called at 4:30 today and there wasn’t much the call handler could do until tomorrow but I’m really not sure what’s going to happen, waited since March and the possibility of 1.having to do this wait again and 2. None of it even being backdated if I have to do a new form. Some people doing Coc recently have been getting decisions within weeks which is the only good thing but I would have more than likely been getting a decision this week or next . all this waiting was genuinely for nothing if it goes to the worst case of starting again and it makes me feel physically sick😥 so 🤞🏽that’s everything is fine and the are able to make a decision with what I’ve already sent X

I really really hope that they can see they have given you wrong info time and time again :-(
Fingers crossed they sort for you ASAP! X

And also good luck to everyone still waiting and I hope everyone gets an award hopefully before Xmas ❤️❤️❤️ you all deserve it and so do the kiddies your all super mums never forget just why your fighting it gets hard but always know each and everyone one of you have got this and will get this ❤️xxxx
