New term, new teacher, new year. its making my boy ill.

Since the return to school my 7year old son is struggling. Early hours Thurs night he was in extreme pain with rectum spasms, this lasted 3.5 hrs. He could'nt go to school fri. Over the weekend we have caught two episodes of the spasms early, gave him his anti-spasm med, lots of cuddles and reassurance. 

I am dreading school for him tomo. I am feeling so helpfless Frown

  • Hi - I'm presuming your son has a diagnosis of autism and a statement of educational needs so he can get the support he needs at school.  Things must be really bad if he's having these spasms for so long.  Do you think the school is doing all it can to help him?Mainstream can be very stressful for our children, as you know from your own experience.  I hope things work out so that his anxiety levels subside a bit if the school can help him more.  If not?
