Hi all just needed some advice reassurance really to those who have older teens. My ds is 15 and is the youngest in his class. If he was born any earlier he would have been in year 10 and this has always shown in school. He's always been behind in learning and needed extra support and interventions. Both primary and secondary school always put it down to him been the youngest, one teacher even stated he would have done better been a year below. After lockdown I was told by his teacher there was some sort of block in his learning so we're doing some tests to see what the block was. They did a dyslexia test etc and said he wasn't showing any traits so put him in interventions. I've been on the phone to the school numerous times to ensure he's getting the right support as it seems that children who struggle like my ds are brushed under the carpet and the more advanced ones helped more. Anyway he leaves school I'm June and I'm really worried for him. He's no idea what he wants to do when he leaves school, he worries about traveling to college/work and worries about making new friends. He was looking into engineering the other day but he hates things like that and I think he's just doing what his mates are doing or he really just doesn't know what to do and settling for anything. My ds is quite shy, struggles to follow instructions at times and panics if he gets things wrong. So I'm obviously worried he's now going into the big world. I do think of he was the year behind he'd be better prepared. His friends all seem ready and know what they want to do. Some days it doesn't seem to phase him he seems laid back about it and others he looks so scared when he talks about jobs/college and it really concerns me. Anyone got any words of advice or words to help steady my nerves.
