Mumsnet pages on SN: What info should they contain?

Hello!

Right, Gerry has asked me to put together some SN pages for Mumsnet. This needs to be a joint venture because I normally just argue on the AIBU boards.

The editorial pages are the stuff in blue at the top of each page that you might not have even noticed: e.g. Conception, Pregnancy, etc.

Here's the pregnancy area for an example of how it is structured.

So to start with, can I have suggestions for content / pages?

The toddler book sections were:
? I Think Something is Wrong: Respecting Your Gut Feelings
? Seeking a Diagnosis
? How You May Feel
? Reactions from Friends and Family
? Managing the Challenges of a SN Toddler
? Special Educational Needs: 'Statementing'

But that is very much a mum-of-toddler perspective and obviously wouldn't apply to lots of children/situations.

There are normally a few MAIN sections which includes :

  • blogs (a blog section for the blogs of mums with SN children would be nice I think? What do you think?) and;
  • products (do we have any product reviews etc. for SN specific purchases? I don't know if this section would be useful or not)
  • Should we look at individual SN diagnoses? Educational issues? support issues?

I will set up a separate thread for us to suggest useful links.

Over to you for your thoughts. Let's get this show on the rooooadddd
